That's different. If Jerry started a "bidding war" for Brees that would force the Saints organization spend more money on Brees than intended, and the Saint would probably spend it.

Unfortunately for Jerry, when the Cowboys weren't expecting it, the Saints would create a bidding war for players they need... and at a time they least expect it, and payback would be a female dog.

If Brees said he didn't want to play for the Saints anymore that would be different.

Jerry can do anything, but I believe there are some "business understandings" that I think all the NFL owners run with.

I'm all for stealing Demarcus Ware from under his nose.

The NFL has some good safeguards against full-out bidding wars. Namely, getting into a bidding war over one player guarantees the pirating of all the remaining good players on the squad. Jerry Jones has demonstrated that he truly believes that enough money can buy an NFL Championship, with predictable results. Still, I doubt even Jerry Jones would be dumb enough to seriously consider a bidding war over Drew Brees.
