Brees Update On Espn News

Yeah I think it's a way to try to pry more money out of the Dolphins. See if the Dolphins try to give more $$$ than the Saints offer and if we don't, he'll just sign with the Saints. Might be wrong but that's what I'm smelling.

'the new orleans saints tried to sign brees but the offer wasnt good enough...will visit the fins today and believes brees faith will be decided right after that.'
This jackball Brees is gonna get ONE look at South Beach from 25,000 feet, and sign on the dotted line from his first-class seat. (assuming he's not on Huizenga's private jet)

C'mon Moleman!!! Sign already!!

i kinda feel bad for the Saints these days. What NFL free agent wants to come to that city right now? They'll have trouble luring free agent talent for years to come.

I feel bad for them too, but quite frankly they are not going to be a contender next year so they should be building with young players. Brees really isn't the right fit for them. He supposedly wants to play for a contender.
The Dolphins are a veteran laden team on the rise. It is a perfect situation for him. Signing with the Dolphins makes long term career sense for him.

I agree with the sentiments from above. You'd like to see the Saints and their fans catch a break, but being a Dolphins fan, I don't want that break coming at the Dolphins expense. Hopefully, they will be able to use that #2 pick to turn things around.

They have already caught a big break at our expense. They got 2 first rd picks for RW.
It's time for the rest of the league to do them a favor. The Phins have to approach the offseason with a single mindedness....win, win, win
 
It would be great news to finally get a top notch QB know matter if it is Brees or Culpepper. Haven't had one since Marino.

Brees and Culpepper are not "top notch".... they're good, but I think the only QBs in the league right now that could be considered "top notch", I hate to say it, are Tom Brady and Peyton Manning...Brees and Culpepper are only viewed as top notch to us because we are in need of a QB
 
Anyone know what offer the Saints gave Brees? I thought they had a lot to offer considering they were in great cap shape.

one rumor was $40 million over 5 years, the other was a $20 million over 2 years(guess they still want to draft Leinart)
 
i think brees would sign for a little less knowing he has a great chance of going to the super bowl with us than N.O.. plus i feel if we sign brees,maybe the dolphins will sign david given to give brees another target. once we sign a QB saban will start signing free agents. it also would be smart for us to pay more $$ on the back end,not too much guarenteed at first cause he is coming off his injury.
