They've been wasting talent on the defensive side too... |

Re: ESPN writer attacks Saints’ ‘wasting’ of franchise player
Sandy is wasting his space at that rag of an online magazine... he should give way to better talent as his writing sucks donkey kongs. He just wishes his favorite team even had Drew Brees!

Any QB stupid enough to sign a deal for less than their market value is an idiot and I certainly don't want an idiot at QB.
Brees and his contract have NEVER been an issue with the Saints success, or lack thereof. |

Re: ESPN writer attacks Saints’ ‘wasting’ of franchise player
Drew was ranked 8th this last season for highest annual salary for a quarterback, he's the 3rd highest in his own division behind Cam and Ryan, Sandy needs to stfu and go back to writing for some bubblegum rag
it took all of about 5 seconds to find that info |

Re: ESPN writer attacks Saints’ ‘wasting’ of franchise player
The game has changed. Times have changed. It's all about the money we all know this. How the Patriots do it, hell, who know's. Drew got paid, Thanks god he did but it hurt us.

Re: ESPN writer attacks Saints’ ‘wasting’ of franchise player
I have to disagree. Bad personnel decisions hurt us. What Brees got paid had nothing to do with it.
