So very false. People who say this are immediately discredited IMO.

We've handed out very rich contracts after Drew. Look at just this past offseason at Fleener.

Not to mention teams truly build talent and depth through the draft with Drew has zero affect on. Our organization treats the draft as a crapshoot on a yearly basis.

True. It is impossible to make quality draft picks and free agent acquisitions when Drew is getting paid.

It's been a shite show the last few years. How can you continually miss on players? Which leads me to believe it's the coaching not the players. See New England as an example. New players on D line,no receivers to speak of, New QB every week...still winning!

You idiots are still talking about this. Brees' salary was never the issue. See if you can find yourself a clue.

This is the way I'm leaning. There are too many players who have struggled here to go on to have high levels of success elsewhere.

Hey, stupid. If every player played to the level of their contract like Drew Brees has, we would have 10 straight Super Bowl victories. You have zero understanding on how the NFL works and you should feel bad about that.

False

28% of the cap is unusable due to dead cap
Drew takes up 11.6% of the cap

Ladies and gentlemen, basic 7th grade math. It is important afterall.

False. The Saints can't rebuild the team because Loomis and Payton suck at drafting and signing free agents

It's not a knock on Brees, asswipe. It's a "rebuilding from here" discussion.
We have missed on picks and lost others for various reasons. If we try to rebuild a total team to be more than competitive, how can it be done anytime soon while keeping our highest paid positions.

Brees is the best ever, we know that, this thread is NOT to shite on him.

Strange how New England does this consistantly with their high paid quarterback.

His contract isn't the problem. If anything, him playing well the past few years is keeping us from hitting rock bottom and is dragging out the rebuild
