re: Does Brees restructure contract to provide cap relief?

Depends, would the saints have cut him? Would he have made more elsewhere? Do you think he will actually play two more years? I dont.

From the way I understand it, he's still going to get at least what he was due this year by the time it's all said and done, he just gets shite numbers the next couple of years so that they can spread the total contract over that because the avg per yr is way down now.

So now he's kinda screwed if he still has more left in the tank but I doubt he will
