03-13-2018, 12:10 PM

A source said that at least one other team was willing to give Brees $60 million guaranteed over two years to try and woo him away from New Orleans.

Drew Brees agrees to re-sign with New Orleans Saints on two-year, $50 million deal

This is a totally different case than Graham's agreeing to challenge the franchise tag designation for the NFLPA. Don't forget that Brees did the exact same thing as Graham when he agreed to challenge the secondary franchise tag issue for the NFLPA. In that case he did exactly what Graham did.

Fantastic news!

We need to address the area opposite Michael Thomas though, we need another weapon on offense.

When you are right.......you are definitely right!

Like I said, if we had another 7-9 season he would be somewhere else as we speak. Payton bought himself some more time with Brees when he made the coaching changes and decided to commit to the run.
A bunch of teams have gotten a lot better this week. Hopefully we will continue to do the same.

I get it's Condon's job to get max for his client, but there's also success measured in other ways and that includes more endorsements for a repeat Superbowl winner...

Condon's made plenty at the expense of this team's AND Brees' success, so that MoFo is owed no apology; that's just Brees' good character...

Next CBA should have a caveat to allow for one true franchise player where his cap number doesn't break the team's ability to be competitive...

No, Condons job is to get money for Condon.
