Brees, as the Ideal Raider

05-04-2012, 03:59 PM

I no longer give a damn....sign or don't sign Drew. Whatever

since we have tendered Brees, he is officially our property for a year...so, why isn't this tampering?
I think the benevolent one should grant us a mid round compensatory pick

oh, and on a side note, how did palmer feel about this quote?

This is SO ON POINT. Brees deserves more than Manning and Brady for his production over the last 6 seasons. He doesn't seem to be slowing down. His nexxt few seasons could very well be better than the last record setter, odds are in that favor.

Someone please explain to me how being the ideal member of a team that has averaged 5 wins a year over the last decade increases anyone's price tag?

I don't understand your question. He referring to Brees being the ideal player.

If it were the Patriots or the Steelers, or hell, even the Chargers I might take that seriously, but being an "ideal Raider" is kind of like being called an "ideal candidate for NFL commissioner."
They may be nice sounding qualities, but the people identifying them don't tend to pick the best individuals.
