STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Brees projects Stafford has 3-4 elite years ahead despite age 37; MVP-caliber peak still coming.

Drew Brees told the media that Stafford could have "3 to 4 of his best years" ahead of him, citing his own career arc where later seasons were the best because mental acuity peaked while physical capability remained intact. Brees specifically told Stafford directly that he is at an elite level and positioned for career-best performance in the coming years, barring injury. Stafford won his first MVP at age 37 last season, aligning with Brees's trajectory—Brees finished second in MVP voting at age 39 and led the NFL in completion percentage from ages 38-40.
