Not to say that he isn't generally disappointed, but I felt his interview today was really manipulative.

The guy speaks tactically and deliberately, and I know the whole point of the interview was to instill uneasiness and fear into fans. Now while that might put pressure on the club and ultimately lead to a new deal, it sort of rubbed me the wrong way.

He stated that the numbers put out there were inflated, but I would really like to know what he was offered to leave him so disappointed. While it obviously isn't what he wants, if it makes him the highest paid QB, how is it not a fair offer?



Good post. And, it wasn't personal when Drew was making all of his statements as a player representative during the lock out...it was business.

Now he is put off because the Saints haven't fully met his demands and have only offered him the #1 contract in the NFL?

I don't buy it. This is nothing more than a tactic to get more money. Fans shouldn't be upset that the Saints are not simply giving in to his demands. In fact, they should be very happy about it.

Unfortunately, there are tons of fans on the radio and on here who don't even consider the salary cap when offering an opinion that the Saints should simply meet his demands.

Drew outplayed his 6 yr contract BIG TIME and did not bitch one time to rework his deal! He was making mid of the pack $ for QBs even though he was an ELITE QB.

He freaking DESERVES A HUGE PAYDAY!!!!

He wouldn't use it even if I came out of retirement to make him one.

Why do you say that? I used Chads' MS Paint drawing of me, complete with the text "Irish Douche." Also, I don't think my avi is weird. It's clearly a gaming system playing with itself.

He went public, now the Saints will go public. The saints will release details of the proposed deal and Drew will look really bad for turning down >60M guaranteed when most fans don't make 0.2% of this money in a really bad economy.

Nice guy image will start to falter.

I'm not so sure. Even if this thing got uglier before it got done, Once 9 is on the field shredding bitches and getting wins, no one will give a good days frick about the way the contract negotiations went.

Pretty much. There were plenty of people I was mad out during the lockout. I could give a single frick about that now.

He did play at a ridiculously high level for 3 years for a fraction of what it was worth. He also did not hold out last year, knowing he was going to be compensated for a fraction of what he's worth.


He was offered contract extensions but turned them down...evidently because he wants a billion dollars or something like that.
