What is the rush? It doesn’t help us if he retires now. For everything he’s done for the team and city he deserves as much time as possible. Also like mentioned earlier waiting till June 1st tremendously helps the saints.

Yeah, I heard one of his main considerations was announcing at a time that is convenient for “JWeezy.”

It helps us if it isn’t effective until June 1st.

He can lessen the Saints' cap hit if he waits until after June 1st.

Sorry to be the one to tell you but 25,000,000 dollars for one year would cause you to think carefully too. Especially when it comes to football, a game that you love and once played for free. Besides he probably won't see those kind of paydays ever again. May as well take advantage of them while they are still available.

He's trying to maximize the media coverage.

He'll retire on Super Bowl Sunday, when 110+ million eyeballs are watching coverage all day.

It's out of the old Saints playbook when they wanted to make a splash by announcing on Super Bowl Sunday that Ditka was hired as Saints HC.

Don't let Drew fool ya. He's low-key ego-maniacal and all about his brand. This is his last shot at fan worship.

I made this statement to state the obvious from his point of view. Personally,I am ready for more mobility and down field passing. Too many Coaches play the games in their heads, but the games are determined on the field. How many people thought that Jalen Hurts was going to have success against us,or that they would win. I like Drew Brees, but he is not the QB from our SuperBowl Season, he was flawless.

What the hell is the rush? Why do you care when he does it as long as the front office is aware of his plans? The Saints will likely not turn in the retirement paperwork until after June 1 anyway.

Shaking the tree for a last bit of money. He is good at that.
