NewEra Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Why?? Brees is a top 5 QB in the league still to this day. He is the difference-maker that the Bills need. Give me reasons why he wouldn't be what I said he would be and then let's discuss. The Saints are going to have to seriously think about letting him go this year, one way or the other. He would be what you said.....except the part about us being able to trade for him. He's not going anywhere IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsPride12 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Not gonna happen but for the sake of messageboard chatter I would much rather have Drew Brees than a hobbled up 38 year old Peyton Manning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Brees is done. No he's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) There is zero chance that the Saints release Brees. Luck, Rodgers, Wilson and Brady are the only 4 QBs I can think of in the league more secure in their jobs.

Mr. WEO Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Agreed. Way too many haters here. Such a shame. FYI if Brees is avail via trade/free agency, you sign him immediately. It's not "hate". There are 3 other threads devoted solely to this topic. It's an idea that absolutely didn't need to be brought up a second time, let alone a 4th.

It's unreal that ANYONE thinks the solution to a cap situation is to release the greatest player in franchise history coming off of a 5,000 yard season. Think about how ridiculous that is.

QuoteTheRaven83 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 After we trade for Drew Brees. We can sign Dez Bryant, Demaryius Thomas, Mike Iupati, Ndamukong Suh, and Darrelle Revis. Super Bowl, here we come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like the uni-bomber and that's not a good loook for the face (and neck) of the franchise. OK, throw in the long snapper if need be. People may be crazy... but they mean well. Mostly.

ChanOverChin Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Q: How do the Saints get under the cap when they are more than $20M over?? They're not going to extend his contract to keep paying him $15M+ when he's 35 yrs old. A: A few different ways. But whatever they do it's going to significantly weaken they're roster. Do they then pay Brees $15M+ per season with an even weaker roster than last year's team that was lucky to win 6 game?? They're choice will be: 1. Keep Brees at $15M+ and cut 5-6 significant players (which doesn't make a whole lot of sense because they might have Brees, but then they would be too weak at other positions to compete for a playoff spot). 2. Trade or release Brees plus cut 1-2 others. This might sense to them if they can get something for Brees while also ridding themselves of his huge salary. Cap hell is, well, hell.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The Saints are in cap hell since they are $20M+ over the cap. They will have to release a number of veteran players to just get under the cap and sign their 2015 draft picks. With that in mind, they could be looking to dump their 35 yr old starting QB and start anew. This is where the Bills' QB search should start and hopefully end. With Brees running the show in Buffalo the Bills will make the playoffs and even have a better than average shot at the SB. IMHO, Brees even offers better value at this point in his career than P. Manning, who appears to be fragile and on his last legs, but certainly still very talented. Brees probably still has a good three years in him. Your thoughts?? sure but doubt it It would be like if Kelly Cuoco left The Big Bang Theory. Who would watch the show? Sheldon makes that show go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shes a mess now not her best look, my wife watches that show every day so I see plenty of it and got to admit it's pretty funny and have become somewhat attached to the characters. All I know is Amy and Sheldon better have "coitus" before the series ends or there will be a real big bang coming from the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
