Re: Brees to NO
It's a one year, 10 million dollar deal. They won't pay him a 12 million dollar roster bonus next year. He either re-signs long term again next year, or it's one and done in the big bayou.
Not bad for Drew. Not at all.
If he wants to play for money, he has to do well, but not so well that New Orleans decides they want re-commmit to keep him. Then he hits the market and can go somewhere else.
If he decides he likes it in NO, the 12 million roster bonus puts tremendous pressure on the team to re-do the rest of his deal, with a more palatable signing bonus and a total value of at least 60 million.Originally posted by TopdogOriginally posted by mercyruleOriginally posted by mercyrule
