Pre-Season Projections: New Orleans Saints

Coach: Bill Belichick 6 PPG

QB: Drew Brees 32 PPG

Drew Brees may be the best QB in the history of the NFL that hasn’t been an MVP. He must be perfectly fine with winning a Super Bowl in its stead and surely Dan Marino would agree. Brees is what you want at your quarterback position, consistent and reliable. He has a decade-plus rapport with his head coach and has multiple QB1 seasons on his resume.

Similar to what Tom Brady experienced in his career, the Pats are hoping the importance of the quarterback position is more important than overpaying aging defensive talent. In a run heavy offense, Wilson’s upside is held back, but showcases elite playmaking ability when given the opportunity. We may never see 500 point Wilson again until Schottenheimer is canned, but he’s still a fringe top 10 option.
