Looks like the Norman situation opened some issues with Brees?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I will repeat this for the 10th time (?) ... ... there is no reason to finalize a Brees extension until AFTER the draft. I have been saying this for at least two months now....

Every QB in the NFL makes large sums of money now. Even **** sandwich qb's
No QB makes 30 million a year. Brady, Luck, Scam Newton, Manning, Matty lice all make no where near it. And 3 of those names saw the Super Bowl the past 3 years. It is about one player making 30 million.

It would of allowed us to bring in some more above avg players.

There weren't any "above" average players that we needed in free agency. Lauriniatis was the top rated OLB FA. Fairley was the top rated DT FA. Fleener was the #2 rated TE FA behind Antonio Gates.

ALL of those QB's have contracts that pay more per year on average than Brees' deal.

Not to mention; if they were wanted Loomis will make it happen. Just like with Norman... Even though I'm thinking the Redskins over-payed a little

You may want to look things up and read my post before posting. It saves you from looking stupid. I said his 30 million cap hit this year. Look at the link below. His cap hit is 30. The second is Manning with 24.5.. No one said anything about avg. Avg means nothing to us this year seeing it is Brees last year. Sheesh.
