Saints just drafted a developmental quarterbackÂ
Whether the Saints view Garrett Grayson as their quarterback of the future remains to be seen. He has not seen a lot of action in the regular season. In fact, the Colorado State product has not yet attempted a single regular season pass in two NFL seasons.
With that said, New Orleans did exhaust an early third-round pick on Grayson. He was looked at as nothing more than a developmental quarterback behind future Hall of Famer Drew Brees. Two years into the process, it’s unlikely the Saints have a real grasp of what he might be able to bring to the table.
Wouldn’t New Orleans be better off promoting Grayson to No. 2 on the depth chart while adding another developmental guy late in the upcoming 2017 NFL Draft? He has a working relationship with both Brees and head coach Sean Payton. That’s something Manziel surely can’t say.
