Drew Brees

Here’s where we get into situational judgment of a quarterback. Brees’ recent success with the Saints isn’t debatable, but he is getting up there in age. His arm strength is not what it used to be. He plays a ton of games in domes with an offensive-minded head coach and has a system that works. Anyone calling for Brees to end up in Chicago may regret what they are asking for to happen. Because Brees can’t stretch the field like he used. He relies heavily on one of the best receivers in the NFL. He’s not going to want to play outside a dome and have the wind making his arm issues even more apparent. That limits the teams Brees could work out for. Having said all that, Brees is perfect to stay in New Orleans or play in a warm-weather stadium that isn’t battered by the elements. He’s the final piece to a team looking to win a Super Bowl.
