Of course, it's what he'll be watching that's important. At 11 a.m. Saturday, ESPN will broadcast the NFL Draft. As of Thursday, Brees had no idea which team is going be his future employer. I think there are about 10 possibilities. The list has definitely gotten a lot bigger since two months ago.
Teams are so secretive now.
Since the end of the NFL season, it has been speculated that San Diego, which signed veteran QB Doug Flutie in the off-season, will chose former Virginia Tech quarterback Michael Vick with the top pick. And if they trade out of that pick to the middle of the first round, then I would definitely get my hopes up. Kansas City, which lost starter Elvis Grbac to free agency during the winter, doesn't have a quality starter on its roster. The Chiefs, under new coach Dick Vermeil, have been trying to trade for Rams backup Trent Green. Vermeil coached Green at St. Louis when the Rams won the Super Bowl in 2000.
