They'll probably do that regardless. Brees is going to want as much guaranteed as he can get. I don't think "waiting" is necessarily better. It's just annoying to hear all the BS that is going to swirl around until he signs. Wish they could've got it done before FA hit.

It is annoying to fans for sure, but they really don't care about that when it comes down to it. Twenty years ago the same type of things happened, but fans didn't get bent out of shape because they were totally out of the loop. No 24 hour per day football channels and no social media. I am from that old school and that is why I tune out all of that BS.

I can wait for things to happen when they do. I am getting much too old to hurry through anything.
