Every indication points to the fact this is being worked on. Just takes time given how royally screwed the franchise is regarding Cap figures. Its not posturing, it's the business side.

Even though it was shot down, that's some good stuff there
I'm getting tired on waiting on Drew as well, but a deal will get done and when it does things will finally get back to normal for the Saints (well what normal will be this year) |

Vilma restructured but I don't know if that money frees any cap space.
Then again Vilma might be still playing this season... |

I got two words for ya; slippery slope.
I want a Brees contract as much as any Saints fan, but there's just some places government shouldn't go. Levying taxes is a function of government, manipulating contracts between private individuals and/or businesses is NOT. This isn't North Korea.. yet. |

This is why there should be public arse-whoopings...
This moron should have the living schiott beat of 'em... The state's in a fiscal crisis, the only spending being cut includes those people who could use the help... And this moron, freaking moron, is pulling dumb arse schiott like this... Stay out of sports, you weren't good enough to play, and quit wasting our tax dollars, start voting term limits and budget compliance... Drew will get paid enough, Condon will be told to STFU, and there will be enough left to sign the players necessary to win another championship so Drew can make the real money in endorsements... ...there, now I feel better... |

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
