Stallworth and Horn

brees was a pro-bowler with some crappy wrs...granted he did have gates...imagine what he will do with a decent wr core.

Guys, not to be a buzz-kill, but if we don't get some beef on the line, you're going to think you were in Mr. Peabody's 'Way-Back Machine' looking at Bobby Hebert getting sacked all over the place!

D'brick or a quality OT at #34 would keep the ends protected. adding at least one journeyman FA signing in between would be a decent turnaround.

i think it will be intriguing to see how many "drops" there will be this season. smiley was a gunslinger but threw some very difficult balls to catch. the way hilton came on in the last half and the way brees used gates ya gotta think he may be a big breakout player this season too.

Me 2, I lost a lot of faith in our WR core last year, regardless of the reason , they get paid to catch the ball.

The fact that the statistic is called dropped passes implies that the balls were catchable. Of course, even if they did catch all of them, AB's stats still would have been godawfull.

OK then I will give you the benefit of the doubt on the one hoppers, but 2 hands on the ball IS catchable...although this year the excuse can be "We are not used to the spin drew puts on the ball"

i agree that our receiving core had a tough year last year, but how can you expect them to cath a ball from someonne who is throwing it behind him one down and to the cheerleaders the next. it isnt just fans that can loose faith in a player especially from someone like smilling brooks

Dude I bet Stallworth and Horn are cutting back flips!!!!! I cant wait till opeaning day !!!! We might actually score on our opening drives !!!!

We need to go O-line in the first cause Brees will be toast if we dont. I think Stallpepper can also have a pro-bowl type year if the ball is in front of him and not in the dirt.
