Really like it for both teams. Saints get a quality backup and potential successor for Brees, Jets get a 3rd they desperately need after that trade with Indy. Signing Bridgewater off the streets and getting a 3rd for housing him during the offseason is smart asset management, especially if you want to start Darnold anyway.
