Drew Brees says details are hanging up contract negotiations



Full Story – Nola.Com


In an appearance on ESPN Radio's Mike and Mike in the Morning, Drew Brees shed little light on how close the New Orleans Saints and he are to finalizing a long-term contract for the All-Pro quarterback. Brees said he believes that smaller details are preventing a deal from being completed.

"Why do contract negotiations take this long anyway?" Brees asked. "It should be a much more simple process than it is. Certainly, it comes down to certain provisions of the contract. There are little things here and there that take time to resolve."

Brees said he still remains confident that the two sides will forge an agreement before the looming July 16 deadline to complete the contract.

I heard a "radio talking head" say that if Drew and the saints don't have a long term contract worked out by 16 July, they could start negotiating to sweeten the amount paid to drew under the franchise tag for one year. If that's true, this mess could drag on right up to the season. Anyone else hear that? Has that ever been done?
