Anyone else think this is a shorter deal than expected? I was expecting at least a 3 year deal. Maybe even a four year deal to make sure he is here to retirement.

No. It is essentially a one year deal. The $27 million is guaranteed in year one and year two is a team option. This reflects exactly what Brees has mentioned about the remainder of his career as a Saint. He has said he expects, even while planning on playing well into his 40's (all with the Saints), that he'll play it year to year for the rest of his career.

I have been saying all along that the deal would most likely be of this type. Yes, other types of deals have been speculated, but this deal matches what Brees had detailed himself.

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

Fantastic news!

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