The New Orleans Saints and WR Marques Colston have agreed to a 5 year deal 40 million dollar contract!
| Quote: | Saints signed WR Marques Colston to a five-year, $40 million contract.
According to NFL.com's Jason La Canfora, "just under half" of the $40 million is guaranteed. A move that previously seemed unlikely gained momentum after dueling Tuesday reports revealed the Saints were "working feverishly" to re-sign their physical slot receiver, and that Colston "badly" wanted to remain in New Orleans. Since the Saints were expected to enter free agency with just $7 million in cap space, Colston will undoubtedly earn a low base salary in 2012 before seeing his numbers steadily increase. It's the best possible news from a fantasy perspective, as Colston had little chance of equalling his routinely prolific production outside of the Saints' aggressive aerial attack. Colston will turn 29 in June. |
