And yet, a more intriguing prospect :)
He is intriguing if only because the old age and a lack of starts makes him the biggest enigma since Trey Lance.

Shough I'd imagine should have a massive advantage over Rattler because the new coach picked him.

It's risky but if there is some logic to it. Shedding that awful Carr contract was the priority.

Realistically though.. assuming no cap issues, money isn't a thing..
Trading a QB to a division rival?
Trading god only knows how much of your future, for a QB, from a divisional rival?

Besides, the roster is in bad shape- the Saints are a bottom 2-3 bet to win the SB this year, and that was BEFORE Carr retired. No point in going all in on an aged QB.. be it Cousins or Rodgers.

Smart play is to let the youngsters have the job, see what they've got, and start planning for 26 and beyond.
Hell if you want a veteran to show the kids how it's done, go sign Wentz. Has a ring, 90 games started, and 3 years holding a clip board- perfect mentor material

Saints are #Planning4Manning

(feel free to use that phrase this season)

Weeden was basically a west coast, first read, get the ball out, old man non-athlete coming out of college. Shough has a decent athletic profile, good size, and a decent arm. There is a higher upside...lower floor than Weeden which if the Saints do tank then that should make things easy.

Kurt Warner was 27, he's in the HOF :)
Yeah, but he had those arenea league years - a step up in competitition from college. He technically signed with the Packers at 22, undrafted, but was released in camp.

Yeah I know, he just seemed like a better option to throw out than Chris Weinke

Henry supposedly is signing a two year 30 million deal with the Ravens. Who here has owned Henry but traded him away because we were scared he would be stepping off that cliff at any time, yet he's still going strong.
