Head Coach: Sean Payton
2020 Record: 12-4
First Round Draft Pick: Payton Turner, Edge (28)
Hats off to Drew Brees. He played extraordinary football in the NFL for 20 years, was an exemplary leader, a fearless competitor, a model father, and a first-ballot Hall of Famer. The records he holds are incredible: most career passing yards (80,358); most seasons with 5,000+ passing yards (5); most completions (7,142); best career completion percentage (67.7%). While records are made to be broken, it will be a long time before one player not named Drew Brees holds all these records. So, now what? Is it Jameis Winston, or Taysom Hill? We vote for Winston, but the Saints seem to have more faith in Hill, if the contracts signed are any indication. (The Saints guaranteed Hill $12 million; and only $5.5 million for Winston.) Either way, Drew Brees is a tough act to follow.
