What about Graham? What about Colston? We've been so loaded that losing a few WR's didn't make much of a dent.

Meachem was not much of a loss. We have everyone else back. Why do we need to find a WR or TE when we are already solid there? Was it a typo for DT or DE??? :-)

A source tells the New Orleans Times-Picayune that unsigned franchise player Drew Brees is "very upset" he won't be able to attend the Saints' offseason program beginning on Monday.

With all due respect to Brees, he could attend if he really wanted by signing his one-year franchise tender. "It is very upsetting to him not being there Monday," the source said. "He wants to be there for his teammates." The Times-Picayune confirms that contract talks "have been practically nonexistent" between Brees and the Saints over the past few weeks.

Why on earth would he sign, knowing that B&G MUDBUGS III is on April 21st?

That's all included in my piece also, including them as the source for him not attending. Thanks, Pap.

I'm already so sick of this offseason and the draft hasn't even got here yet. :doh:
The preseason needs to hurry up and start!

ESPN keeps reporting how involved Benson is-- pretty busy guy these days. Can't recall last time he was mentioned in contract negotiations

you nailed it! Drew Brees, in case you didnt get my invite, you are invited. B&G MudBugs III - hosted by the Hou-Dats/Houston / SE TX Chapter of WhoDat Nation @ Skymikes dangerous* but awesome swamphouse, on Old River, TX. (see thread)

*if you are afraid of guns, fire, gators, snakes, mosquitos, heat, gas guzzling trucks, backwoods people, unhealthy food, or anything southern, this party is not for you.

Im gonna lose a lot of respect for him if he doesn't show up. plain and simple. I'll support him when he gets back, but I think I'll look at him a little differently from here on out

Benson to Brees: "Say Drew, can you play point guard too??"
