Why did brees turn down the contract we offered him?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I think they better keep negotiating, I have a sinking feeling Goodell may strip them of the the franchise tag there using on him in which case they tag never happen and every one we have will be allowed to ...

Which may be one of the reasons why we used it on Brees. I'm thinking since we already used it they can't take it away. It would be unfair to the rest of the players we have on our team.

I don't think Goodell will do that................However kiss your #1 draft pick goodbye in 2013! JMO. Along with suspensions and Money in 2012(Vilma comes to mind)

Quote in the Charlotte paper today. Steve Smith "I WOULD NOT EXPECT ANYTHING LESS FORM THOSE GUYS!" Coming from a guy who punched out his own team-mates! LMAO.

No biggie, the 32nd pick ain't all that special anyway.
