I thought he wanted $22m?


I don't think Brees would play for $22,000.00

I still don't think that it's out of the question that he plays under the franchise tag this season, but still...

Well things just got interesting. I'll give that about a 5% chance of happening though.

I think the guy writing the article started putting it together before the news of the contract offer came out and decided to throw it out there anyway. He mentions Drew looking to make around $40 million with the tag this year and next, but it looks like the 5 year deal gives him that as well. He'll sign.

I'll eat half of a crow sandwich on this one. I see it being used both ways when I look on the internet. You didn't use a $ with yours, so mm=millimeters in your post. Either way I was just messing with, I'm more worried about the deal happening.

I've taken drew's side on this the entire time but if this is true and the deal doesn't get done, it's gonna be hard to justify drew turning it down

Yeah, a month ago it was "no way would Drew play under the tag". These guys know as much as us.
