Good
Fully expected him to be.

Now the big question how much?

He knows he is surrounded by championship level players. Is he willing to take a few less $ for a better shot at a ring?.

Easy to say when its not you but if you have all the money in the world like Drew would you play for 20ml next year and give the team 5ml for another piece.

With Brees being so close to the all-time yardage record, I didn't see him not returning...

However, the inconsistent performances due to arm strength or a big tell, concern...

But that laser-decisive brain is where his real value is, but teams are starting to load up in the front now...

Was hoping we could continue to draft a stand-out offensive lineman, but as deep as this draft is...

Now is the time to get that quarterback for transition...

He'll be back.

I'm sure this will be a topic all offseason for us Saints fans but there is no way I would draft a QB to be Drew's future replacement this year. We need to fill areas of need in the draft and free agency because this team is close and that window is very small with Brees. The fact that we don't have a 2nd rounder really leaves no room for drafting a backup QB for down the road when this team is ready to win now if we draft smart and play our cards right in free agency. Wait another year or 2 before looking for the QB in the draft.

We need to protect Drew and draft another young O-lineman in the first round that we get on a five year deal. We've been winning but as our O-line changes so does our success for winning. We need better depth.....also, Unger ain't getting any younger.
