Re: Drew Brees has no worries about losing Payton to Cowboys
 

Didn't Brees also tell us that he wanted to do what was best for the team during his contract thing?

Re: Drew Brees has no worries about losing Payton to Cowboys
 

Brees know Payton on a personel level that none of us even can fathom. I'm sure in the past 5 years over a beer or two its come up on where else they'd like to be. if Brees isn't worried neither am I.
Right now the only ones saying Payton is leaving is ESPN and the Mayans...
and look how thats worked out for the Mayans.

A friendly "c'mon man" -- that's not true, Dude, and you know it...you know Drew has to know more about what's up with Payton than we do, maybe not everything, but I have no doubt he knows a heckuva lot more about the situation than he's letting on. (a) he knows Payton better than any of us, and was practically the last person to talk to him before he left,and (b) there is no doubt Drew can certainly pick up a phone and talk to Benson or his office, talk to Vitt and the coaches about what they know, or he can talk to someone in the Saints camp who knows the inner workings of what's up with the contract. He can even have his agent call Payton's agent, to ask are you close, are we getting somewhere?

Brees has a LOT more pull and freaking access to info than we mere mortals have, just like he did during Bountygate. He may not make it all public, but I guarantee you that whatever is going on with this Payton contract, Brees knows a good bit more of the real whole picture than anyone in the media or fan base.
