Latest contract details:
3/13/2012: Signed a five-year, $40 million contract. The deal contains $19 million guaranteed.

Contract:5 yr(s) / $40,000,000 Signing Bonus - Average Salary $8,000,000 End Year:2016 Free Agent:2017 / Unrestricted

Saints re-signed WR Marques Colston to a five-year, $40 million contract.
The deal reportedly includes $19 million 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 equaling his routinely prolific production outside of the Saints' aggressive aerial attack. Colston will turn 29 in June.
