I remember when Drew was negotiating his contract and some Saints fans were furious because the team seemed to be playing hardball with him. There were cries for Loomis to pay the man. He had played for a relatively low salary for us and took us to the Super Bowl and won it. I don't understand all the complaints about his salary now. Most of us wouldn't voluntarily take a pay cut pay cut just so our company could hire better qualified people. The implication that Drew is greedy or doesn't care about going to another Super Bowl is ridiculous. If the Saints organization can't find the money to sign free agents and he is asked to restructure, I feel certain he will. But, like the other QBs, I'm sure he will not actually take a pay cut but, instead, will just spread the impact of his contract out. I don't care who else they sign, without Drew our chances of another Super Bowl in the near future are very slim. I think he deserves every penny he is being paid especially when you look at Romo who has a salary commensurate with Drew's.

dude, r u an attorney?

No, but I have had enough business law courses and a degree in accounting to know how the intricacies of these contracts work. In management asset accounting you can play all sorts of tricks to make the books reflect values of assets, in this case, player salaries.

you always find out the details so I was thinking attorney, but that makes sense

People are always oh so generous with other people's money.
