    - Great thing about the Vet-Stud QB avenue is the 2-3 year deal signed and not on the hook for 6-7 years. -- nm - budice Dec 31, 10:54

    - Pats, Saints, Panthers - alot depends on the Draft too and where Brady ends up -- nm - Beaker Dec 31, 10:49 2
      - Saints and Panthers are broke. -- nm - The Allfather Dec 31, 10:49 1
