"Brees is 'livid' about being … tagged and not receiving a long-term contract, according to WIST-AM in New Orleans. The radio station cites sources in the Brees camp that he will not sign the franchise tag deal.

:D

BONUS EDIT: FORMER SAINTS PLAYER WANTS NFL TO SUSPEND BREES

Former Saint Kyle Turley wants the NFL to investigate and possibly SUSPEND Drew Brees depending on his knowledge of the bounty program, and for the NFL Players Union to demote him since they have been arguing for years for improved player safety and Brees is an executive within the players organization.

He should've seen this coming! The team doesn't have enough money since they used most of it on bounty rewards for their defensive players. Don't worry Brees, I'm sure Miami will be more than willing to sign you. I'm sure they're well ok with being a consultation prize from when you chose the Saints* over them years ago.

lol SaintsReport implosion incoming

No they are staying delusional about this one, saying that Bree's isn't that kind of guy and that this is just a baseless rumor that can't be confirmed. Lmao, it's going to be great seeing how all this unfolds for the Aints.

    • Tbf Darnolds last few games here were on par for "good Darnold." Some good decisions and some bad. He had extended success with the Vikings but he still had plenty of poor decisions. Still better than anything we have here. I've always been a Darnold fan and I hope that he finds continued success as a veteran. 
    • I honestly hope he figures it out, but at this point we have little reason to think that he will. He's been even worse than he was as a rookie, which is tough to do. I see no reason he shouldn't be bumped down the depth chart once Coker is back. Jalen is the better player and it's not even remotely close right now. That would if nothing else allow XL to be moved around to where he's in the best position to contribute instead of forcing him into a role he's clearly not ready for and may never be ready for.
    • I think a lot of this stems from how well some of our FA acquisitions / trades played after leaving us. But there's a lot of important caveats there, and I think in Mayfield's case he needed to hit rock bottom (yes, we are rock bottom) to bounce back. He seems much less arrogant in TB. Darnold was, for Darnold, playing well here when we moved on from him too.  I think you are right. I also think we can't wait another 3 years to see if the offense turns around. XL needs to start his turn around this year. And Bryce needs to at least return to how he played the last half of his 2nd year.  Or, imo, we move on from both.
