WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — For the first time in more than a decade, Drew Brees is looking over his shoulder.
The Saints have drafted his possible replacement and Brees’ $27 million salary cap number for 2016 looks just too onerous for a team already in financial straits and that could be in a major rebuilding mode, if it already isn’t.
Except that No. 9 doesn’t see it that way.
“Absolutely not,” he answered Wednesday to a question about seeing any comparison to the San Diego Chargers drafting Phillip Rivers in 2004 to the Saints taking Garrett Grayson this year.
