Are you serious, His injury concerns are a direct result going all out on throws from brees!!! It's the reason he missed four games last season.

He's selling himself short, wouldn't want his agent if i was a ball player, but this is good news for Saints and fan's..

Sign him to the deal before he find out his real worth!

Pretty sure you have to know the routes, be in proximity of the route Drew is throwing to and have hands to catch the ball and manufacture yards or points from that catch..

Drew doesn't have a remote control in his hands controlling these receivers, yes Drew can throw it to anyone but once that ball is out of his hands Drew is useless and the power is in the receiver's hands.

...if he's got any hands at all... and Colston has pretty good hands.
There is a number, and the Saints front office has a range.
They won't overpay. If Colston can't live within the salary box the org. sets,
we'll be watching him snag balls elsewhere, and that's fine.
I just believe that the Payton/Brees scheme and skill set can work to make
average look good, good look great, and make great look even greater.
