At long last, by 3 p.m. next Monday, QB Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints will finally have agreed to a new five-year contract. It will be the biggest upset of the NFL season if they don't.

The two sides will probably keep haggling over the details right up until the July 16 deadline. But it will be stunning if Brees doesn't ultimately sign a contract worth somewhere between $19.2 million and $20 million per year, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history.

Only an absurd amount of stubbornness could get in the way now.

Fantasy Impact: 

This has gone on longer than expected, but it sounds like the two sides are close enough that a deal will get done by next week.

Mortensen on Twitter regarding Saints QB Drew Brees: "Arbirtrator Stephen Burbank rules in favor of Drew Brees and NFLPA - next year will count as his 3rd and last franchise tag."

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports added: "If that ruling does go in Brees' favor, however, it becomes more likely he gets $20 million per season."

Fantasy Impact: 

We're expecting Brees to play in 2012.

Brees: "I'd never sit out the season."

In an interview with ESPN's "Outside the Lines," QB Drew Brees said that regardless of the circumstances surrounding his contract negotiations with the New Orleans Saints, he would not sit out the entire 2012 season. Brees has until July 16 to sign a contract extension with the Saints or he would be forced to play under the one-year franchise offer of around $16.3 million or he could decide to sit out some or all of the season.

"I'd never sit out the season," Brees said Tuesday. "I love the game too much."

Fantasy Impact: 

While he didn't say he wouldn't hold out into the season, Brees did alleviate concerns that his holdout could cause him to miss the entire season. He wants a long-term deal, but when push comes to shove, it would be difficult to turn down the $16 million he would earn this season. We're fully expecting him to play in 2012, but he may not be quite as sharp if he continues to miss practice.

Saints QB Drew Brees said on ESPN Radio’s Mike and Mike in the Morning that he and the Saints are engaged in “ongoing discussions,” and that he believes a deal will be reached.

“I’ve always said, you’d think this process should be a lot more simple than it is,” Brees said. “It just always seems to be complicated. But I’m still very confident we’ll get a long-term deal done, and hopefully that’ll happen sooner than later. I’m very aware of where the Saints are at and certainly where I’m at.
