brees..................
no hit and miss about it. brees should have been the pic.
there is and always will be a premium on quarterbacks. that is why people give up the farm to attain them. it was horrable draft strategy by the finz.
first off, brees was considered a possible first overall pic for the draft after his senior year. he had a kind of down year [so did marino], they were just not a real good team.
many labeled him a franchise qb, some didn't, but that football. everyone has an opinion.
so when a qb that is labeled possible 1st overall talent and possible franchise qb slides to #26, YOU TAKE HIM!! expecially when your qb is jay feidler and his backup is ray lucas and cade mcnown.
it is easier to find a nickel corner and lb. i wanted brees before the draft and i wisdh we had him now.
brees is doing everything marty is asking him to do. and he has the ability to CONSISTANTLY make the big play, expecially down feild.
all in all, brees was the should have pic. that would have been smart drafting.
