With a week remaining until the July 16 deadline, there's been no movement on the Drew Brees contract talks, via a league source.

Brees has had a deal on the table for weeks to make him highest paid player in the NFL, via league source: "Ball is in (Brees') court."

Three times Brees has had deals on the table to make him the highest paid player: leading up to 2011 season, March 2012 and June 11, 2012.

So he hasn't told the Saints no for weeks?

Guess not. Maybe waiting to get closer to the deadline so they will be more willing to wheel and deal. Or waiting on that ruling he got last week. Who knows anymore. I really don't give a f*&$. I just want the damn deal done already.

In before Sophrandos and his ilk come in with their "but how much of it is guaranteeeeeeeeed?!?!?!" line.

(the answer to this red herring of a question, by the way, is: "However much the Saints usually guarantee on sizable contracts."

You say that like it's not one of, if not the most important aspect of the deal.

Yea, cause the Saints always offer comparable deals to this one.

Trip says the Saints have already offered enough to get this deal done. Lets hope any day now.

Tripp just wrote a article for NOLA.
"Brees should sign with Saints by end of week".

Brilliant conclusion Tripp. One of my favorite guys covering the Saints but c'mon man
