Brees may not be in camp!

[La Pantera]

He will sign by the 16th, bank on it.

A contract or his FT?

NFL 32 just said the Brees does no appear to be close to signing and that he is leaning toward not signing by the 16th.

Contract.

[Argus Plexus]

I hope he sits out the year and splits on them I will LOL so hard

[PanthersAlv]

I have heard he's signing the offer they have given him... I have heard he's not signing... right now... I'm just wait'n for the news to drop that he's signed, or for Monday when they say "nope.. No Brees in camp... no long term contract"

Until then... it's the same story... he's not signed.

You are 100% correct my friend. Pie for you

What have they offered him, 19 million or so? No clue what he wants, but they probably sign him for 20 and lose half their team next year due to cap casualties.

[Nicbsbll2]

But but but Breezus loves the city and the team and will take less to help them out!!!1!

Yea he loves them enough to squeeze every dime out of them he can. LOL

I think I read they have offered him 19.5 and he wants 20.5? But they've been off by that amount (about 1Mil) for months. There must be something else.

[Gallagher]

Do they even have cap space enough to offer him $20 million a year?

Ok, nevermind. Just checked it out and as of May 11th they had $8 mil in cap space with Breesus' $14 mil franchise tag. So if they give him $20 mil a year, they'll be just ~$2 mil under.

Either way, the situation is great for the Panthers. Either a contract doesn't get worked out and Breesus sits for a year, or it does and the entire dirty Saints** organization is hamstrung by his riduculous contract for years to come.

Brees cap hit (franchise tag) is 16 million. They have 2.16 million left and still need to sign WR Nick Toon. They will have to do some restructuring to get him his $.
