Drew Brees almost had his Kirk Cousins-Michael Penix Jr moment: Saints wanted Patrick Mahomes in 2017
On April 27, 2017, Drew Brees was down in the Louisiana bayou hog hunting with some of his college roommates.
When they were finished, Brees and his buddies went to the New Orleans Saints' facility to grab some grub. Brees was also well aware that the 2017 NFL Draft was starting later that night.
It was at the facility where Brees got a text from his head coach, Sean Payton, who wanted him to come down to the draft room – many refer to it as the "War Room" – to get an inside look at what the team was planning to do in Round 1.
