Just for whatever it's worth, I am in favor of compounding the misery of waiting around into one single generalized thread.

So does this mean Drew is not the Saint we though he was. 10 million dollars a part. Wow. Wait and see, The ball is in Drew court.

10 mil in guaranteed money on a 100 mil contract is not that much to work out.

I know. Monday July 16 he will sign. A deal will get done.

its a done deal, cha ching lets go to work and get payton another ring, and goodevil a bus ticket to unemployment line.

10 million dollars...........if l were Drew l'd meet in the midle.

He will.... Monday @ 3:59 pm EST

It it were only 10 million total guaranteed he were asking for, it wouldn't be much. He is asking for an extra 10 million on top of whatever the Saints have already offered him, which could be very significant depending on just exactly how much they HAVE offered. But, I haven't a clue what's currently been put on the table. I think we can all agree that no matter which side you're mad at in these negotiations, they will eventually come to an agreement.

I wonder what type of a deal Rodgers is going to sign next offseason, because the way things are going and with the amount of cheerleading he has gotten from the media - he has to be looking for a massive contract.

It would be interesting if Rodgers signed a "lesser" contract with the Packers without any holdouts while Brees and the Saints have been fighting to get this deal done for almost two seasons now - it would certainly cast an unpleasant light on Brees who is thought to be this "team first" type of a player/leader.
