I think it's more than fair market value for Brees.


He's a declining 36 year old.

He's got more guaranteed money than flacco and Russell Wilson who have both won Super Bowls since Bree's. More guaranteed money than Big Ben. Stop and think about that.

And Peyton's contract is 34 with 15 guaranteed.

He didnt sign his contract at 36. Guaranteed is meaningless at this point. It brings security to the player, and if you read the details it wasn't a truly guaranteed $40 million. Saints had the option to cut before each season. We were never going to cut him, so I'm not sure why you're obsessed with guaranteed money

Still ranked #6 in guaranteed money too.

Denver, since Manning signed in 2012, has spent more cap space on Manning than the Saints have so far on the Brees contract.

Yet they've built a complete team even without him being healthy

Junior Galette - $17+ million cap hit
Jahri Evans - $7 million this year, $8.2 next
Colston - $6.5 million
Byrd - $5.5 million
Hawthorne - $4 million
Ben Grubbs - $6 million hit
Curtis Lofton - $5 million hit
Browner $2.4m this year; $6.3 next

How many draft picks are still on the team from 2010-2014?

But you're right, that is all Drew's fault. It isn't his responsibility to manage the cap, and it isn't his fault the Saints have wasted so much space on bad players, or players that aren't on the team anymore.

Look for an extension this offseason

The money we are talking about is ruining every team in the league. But back on topic. He will be the coach the next two years just as Bree's will be the qb the next two years. Then they will both leave and we go through a couple 4-12 seasons if not worst. Enjoy it while it lasts. The best era of saints football is coming to a brutal end.
