I agree. At this point in his career I would doubt seriously that Brees didn't have a say in the matter. And I trust Drew.

Holy double negative JP, so you mean to say Brees gave a discount on his deal in order for the Saints to be able to re-sign Peat?!

Yes. It dealt with the optional 5th year for 1st round picks. Under the old CBA the 5th year, if picked up by the club, was only guaranteed for injury. Under the new CBA it is fully guaranteed.

Is the FB any good?

Is anyone else concerned about our lack of interest in a FA WR?

Do you think Payton likes to wait in FA to see how other teams in the division are doing so he can make corresponding signings?

Don't know about him waiting on a FA WR but probably looking more at a deep WR draft. I wouldn't mind a FA rb. With Gordon signing in Denver probably gonna cut Lindsey. I would love this guy.
