Let's Talk About Drew Brees (1 Viewer)

[Isotopes]

Brees has been absolute money this year, especially over the past 3 games where he has 3 tds in each. He is also completing about 65% of his passes. Looking at the remaining schedule for the Saints - @Pit, Cin, @Atl, SF, @Dal, Was, @NYG - can we expect more of the same? Even more? Or definitely less?

The guy is consistent, and hasn't had one or two blow up games that have skewed his numbers....the schedule seems about middle of the road, and the team is playing great. I think Brees has the potential to end the season in the top 3 for fantasy qbs, behind Manning and McNabb. Bulger and Kitna will challenge him for this spot, but I like Brees to outproduce those two.

Thoughts?

Absolutely agree.Wasn't sold on his situation when he arrived in NO but his surrounding cast has helped him a great deal more than I ever would have expected. Brees is a GREAT value at QB in terms of FF this year and for the forseeable future. I'd still take Bulger higher since he's trended up after a slow start but definitely a better QB than Kitna and it's not even close.

His receiving corps is very solid

Joe Horn and Colston are GREAT, and Devery Henderson looks to be getting on track for them.

Reggie Bush, despite his running faults, definitely can catch the ball and is essentially a 4th WR.

Also, Deuce is hugely underrated as a receiver and I don't think has hit his stride receiving this season yet.

Brees will be money down the stretch. He'll be good for a huge amount of passing yards this season.

Next year could even be better once his young talent starts getting more experience.

If the Saints get a decent pass catching TE this offense could be even more scary next year.
