He’ll sign on time.

To get to where they are now why give him more, Benson is the owner and he is from the car business so he treats it like a car deal. At what point due you walk then he will come up with the money. What Brees should do is not sign the tender and take his show somewhere else then Benson learns another lesson. And Brees is a bigger part than most can see and the city thinks he is god. So they will try and screw him like they do to most players when Brees leaves so will a lot of others.
Benson can’t see that all he see is money

Of course this is going to take a long time. Brees is making them explain to him every line in the contract before he signs. They’re not even halfway through the thing yet.

Which means…..Drew Brees is finally getting an explanation!

Brees is the unquestioned field general and it is obvious to any unbiased fan that this guy is a top 5 QB. That’s the problem with having a top 5 QB…you’ve gotta pay him that way!

Not that I agree with that assessment.

I can’t think of another Franchise QB who had to go through this. Rothelisburger, Rodgers, both Mannings, Brady, Vick, Rivers, etc. All were locked up before it got to the point of them missing any team activities. And Brees can legitimately make the point he’s equal to or better than most on that list as of last season.

Nothing to worry about. His wife is pregnant and he has alot of stuff going on. He deserves a vacation before he signs his final long term contract.

Im not even a Saints fan but with everything that is going on with the franchise right now I would think they would sign this guy right away.

I thought he was pretty good with Mizzou.
