The Facts: As of right now, Brees doesn't have a new contract with the Saints. At noon Eastern Time, Brees officially can entertain, via agent Tom Condon, offers from other teams. So here’s the question: As teams like the Vikings, Broncos, Jets, and Cardinals prepare to submit offers to one or more other members of an unprecedentedly large class of UFA QBs, are any planning to make an offer to Brees?

Diehards Line: As PFT's Mike Florio notes, Brees has said repeatedly that he’ll remain a Saint. HC Sean Payton and GM Mickey Loomis have expressed similar confidence. But until a deal is in place, Brees will fair game for contract offers, and it’s possible that one or more of the teams mentioned above already have let Condon know that an alternative offer will be coming. If any team is thinking about paying market value to Kirk Cousins over five years, Florio asks "Why not offer market value to the 39-year-old Brees over two or three?" It's something we'll be watching closely -- at least until the Saints and Brees make good on their promises to get a deal done.
