[QUOTE="Pack93z, post: 53163, member: 288"] Brees agrees to six-year deal with SaintsBy John Clayton ESPN.com Early in his career, there were questions about Drew Brees having a slow release. Drew Brees Quarterback San Diego Chargers Profile 2005 SEASON STATISTICS Att Comp Yds TD Int Rat 500 323 3353 24 15 89.2 That wasn't the case Tuesday when he pulled the trigger on a six-year, $60 million deal with the New Orleans Saints that included a $10 million signing bonus. Brees' decision came within seconds of the Dolphins dropping out of the bidding when they traded a second-round choice for Daunte Culpepper. All along, the Saints had more money and more guarantees on the table for Brees and wanted to use his name as the marquee for ticket sales, sales that have been hot because of the Saints' return to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Even though the Saints will be looking at Matt Leinart in the draft, they have Brees as their starting quarterback. That puts the Saints in the position to possible trade down from the No. 2 spot and take defensive end Mario Williams or simply take the North Carolina State defensive end. [/QUOTE]
