    If true, Winston is a Saint.

    No. Wouldn't change draft much. Unless the Saints prefer Mariota.

    Tampa would be incredibly stupid to do that.

    I can't see division rivals working out a deal like that.

    I know it's not totally unprecedented (Donovan McNabb) but Brees is on a different level and the first overall pick is involved.

    Just can't see it.

    I wouldn't fully understand it from the Bucs' perspective. You'd essentially be trading away a 21-year old franchise QB for a 36-year old franchise QB.

    I guess loading up like the Broncos did with Manning.

    Then you're giving a rival franchise QB for the next 15 years.

    Surely they aren't giving up the 1st overall pick for Brees straight up ... that would be very stupid of the Bucs.

    Saints do have 2 1st round picks to play with now. Maybe they swap 1sts and give the Bucs another 1st (possibly more picks on top of that). Then it may make since for the Bucs

    Maybe the Bucs aren't sold on Winston or Mariota

    *Former franchise QB. This would be a horrible trade for the bucs. Brees is done as a great QB, IMO. Would be very stupid to trade one of the years most valuable assets for an over the hill, rapidly declining QB. I could see a 3rd round pick. Maybe a 2nd. Never a first.
