Teddy Bridgewater huge for Saints future

The New Orleans Saints are showing the NFL and the Who Dat Nation that they are serious about making a run for the next several years. On Wednesday, the Saints dealt their 2019 third round draft pick to the New York Jets for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater and a sixth rounder next year.

Bridgewater was projected to be a backup in New York with Josh McCown taking the starting role. The Jets also drafted Sam Darnold out of USC. Darnold was one of the five first round quarterbacks from 2018. He’s projected as their future QB and was named as their Week 1 starter on Wednesday.
