I think at 33, at his peak, Brees sitting out would be a disaster. A 34 year old QB that sat out a season devalues him in the NFL.

Someone will pay big money for him, but not a front loaded long term deal he's looking for in New Orleans... then again, look what Condon did for Payton Manning, an injured QB that didn't play a down last season.

neugey: I hope this never happens but they would need to pay the saints more than they have available to get him. If they did somehow convince the team to t6rade him the saints would be able to buy alot of players. Thers always Chase Daniel.

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.
