Tom Condon: Saints seem satisfied with Drew Brees’ cap number

Its typical posturing. I feel a deal will get done.

Please don't believe anything Tom Condon says. He's a liar.

This should be a win/win. I have no clue why they have not worked something out. The Saints get a top QB and will have the cap room to pay him top money. Drew gets to finish his career with a team where he should break all records. I could understand the hold up before the draft but not now.

This is the reason.

For Brees to retire a Saint, the team is going to have to commit a significant chunk to make it happen. Without Brees, the Saints are officially rebuilding and it may be 10 years to reclimb the mountain. With Brees, there is a chance in a shorter window, but it's going to cost.

Everyone seems to think this is an easy decision. Seems like there are blinders to the QB market in the NFL. The about proposed contract extension ($22 million a year, $60 million guaranteed) isn't even out of line. It's market value for a top 5 QB.
