I can tell you after watching him play for the saints for the last 5 years that he is not going to get you to the playoffs. That was his big knock with the saints. His first year (1/2 year really, he started the last 8 games and went 4 -4 ) they made the playoffs, since then they went 4 years without getting to the playoffs and they had a lot of talent. He always seemed to throw a bad pass, or int when it mattered the most. he also fumbled the ball on average about 2 times a game. He is famous for droping the ball when he cocks back to throw. To top it off he was always laughing and smiling even when he was having a bad game. The thing is he was best his first year when he didn't have the job locked up, once they gave him a big 5 year 40 million dollar type deal, it seemed like he didn't care, he had been paid. He has ZERO leadership.
For a free agent pick it is not a bad pickup, he would make a good backup. He probably plays better off the bench when he is actually trying to prove he is good. If they ever give him a fat contract his play will go down hill quick.
