Saints met with top QB prospect Cam Ward [Schefter: CLE, NYG or maybe Saints have to make an offer compelling enough for #1 pick]

If you're gonna "mortgage the future" you do it for a QB. There are no "can't miss" prospects... every one of these players coming out of college has a huge question mark on them when they get to the NFL regardless of where they're picked.

The one position that I would have no problem with the Saints trading up for is a QB. You can't win without a real good one. Cam Ward was real good in college, and I think he's gonna be a pretty good pro.

Me personally... I don't think Spencer Rattler (nor Jake Haener for that matter) got a fair shot last year playing behind a patchwork oline and throwing to not-so-good receivers. No QB would thrive in that situation especially a rookie 5th rounder. I would love to see Rattler in Kellen Moore's offense because I believe Ratt has arm talent and can make every throw.

But I also know that head coaches want "their guy" especially offensive coaches (former QBs). They know what they want in a QB, so if Kellen Moore wants Cam Ward I would have no other choice other than root for the kid when he gets here. But if I'm making decisions I would either draft the BPA on my board or trade down... I wouldn't trade up. But I would have no issues if they do trade up for Ward.
