Drew Brees Holdout?

Over the past few months players including Ray Rice, Matt Forte, Maurice Jones-Drew, and Dwayne Bowe have been holding out for long term deals on their contracts, but the biggest name out of all of them is Drew Brees of the New Orleons Saints. This Monday is when all long term deals must be signed, but the question is: Will Brees get a long-term deal by Monday? At this point Brees has said that he would never miss playing a season, so I believe he will be able to agree to the most expensive long-term deal in NFL history which would make him the highest paid NFL player ever. The Saints are already being defeated by the bounty causing them to lose several players and coaches for as long as a year; without Brees the Saints would have nothing.
