Drew And His Endorsements
 

Drew Brees is the face of this franchise. For better or worse. Maybe he won't sign a contract because he wants more money up front. It's possible that most fans and sponsors will associate Drew with a "dirty team" and his endorsements might dry up. That could be a tremendous amount of money.
It's also possible that he is mad at the team for hurting his future income and is going to make the team make up for his losses.

Its also possible he could be asking for an unreasonable amount of money.

It is also possible that both sides know what they are going to do and they are just waiting for some cap questions to get cleared up concerning the suspensions. There's no need to have anything done yet.

Its also possible that Roger Goodell has kidnapped Brees and is now holding him for ransom.

It's also possible that the tooth fairy exist too. Drew will sign soon. There is no way he is upset with the team in regards to endorsements.

5 Million dollars a part. 18 million offerd, to be the leagues highest paid player. Wants 23 million.

Just end the Dam drama and pay him. You know you will.
