That's my biggest concern with Payton.....

What is Sean Payton without Drew Brees? We don't have anything even close to Brees. How does Payton deal with that? He rarely had a defense that could take up the slack of offensive shortfalls, as rarely as it was needed. I don't know. I'm not sure that Sean Payton is going to be worth the draft pick or picks it will take to get him. Picks are something that I would think are at a premium with the Los Angeles Rams, in light was what they've already surrendered for their QB, and what is going to be needed to put a real team around him.
