didn't we have the chance to draft Brees in the 2nd Rd. when he came out of college? correct me if i am wrong, but instead we went with CB Jamar Fletcher and Brees went soon after, if not the next pick.
I don't think our offense would be like the Saints. They actually have some talent on offense, we have crap for receivers, no tight end but we do have a good running game. I don't think we can compare the 2 offenses. Different coaching staffs mean diffent types of offense. Brees couldn't even throw a ball when Nick Saban had to make the choice, I really can't blame coach Saban for that. Do you really want to invest 60mil in a player that might not e able to even play??
You can forgive past mistakes but can you forgive total ineptitude and bringing down a franchise such as what Dave Wannstedt did? I am more affended with the way Saban left Miami than I am with what he did with Brees and Culpepper.
