Well, you gotta have a rotation at that position to prevent serious injury and to maintain game start to stop effectiveness...

But it's about as good as you get; though I'd like to have had McCullers, the mammoth NT from Tennessee with either that fifth or sixth round pick to develop inline this season...

I would hold in reserve and carry forward to 2015 if not needed.

I'm thinking about the contracts for Jordan and Hicks...

Yup. That could help out there for sure. Brees is also most likely going to get an extension after this season that will also free up considerable cap space for that purpose.

I can't see signing Brees at that age...

This might get good.

It is going to happen. Brees was quoted recently that he felt he could play at the same level into his 40's. With the way he works and the recent advances I have no doubt. Brees at his age is in FAR better physical condition than Manning at the same age.

It will continue to be good for several years because Brees will be around and at that time will be easing into that portion of his career where he has already made his money.
