Vitt: "We think we've got a young Robert Meachem"

I miss the OLD Robert Meachem, sorry.

But I look forward to Joe Morgan making his own reputation.

I was never a big fan of Meach. He took forever to learn his routes and would disappear for stretches.

Vitt was also quoted as saying, "Akiem Hicks is looking like the second coming of Jonathan "Eat Everything In Sight" Sullivan."

Awesome!!!! Wait...what?

Question wasn't Meachem young when we had him ?

I've never understood why people are down on Meachem. When I have watched him play I have always been very impressed. I don't think you can flash the stats of anyone in Brees's receiving corps to make a point. An interesting stat though would be how many times Meachem was targeted against his drops/yards/TDs.

I am pleased to see Morgan getting hyped and Toon as well. I am a bit disappointed for Arrington who has always sat out as that 'guy who could be big' and then never seems to get in. I'm also not sold on Roby any more. But that may be me being disappointed at the fluff at SanFran last year.

Lance didn't have double digit TD's or 1000 yrd. Neither did Henderson.... As for drops they have all had critical drops and or in colstons case fumbles at a time or two...

While he was here Meacham was a productive saint with flurries of great..... We don't need Nick Toon or Joe Morgan to come in and set the world on fire ( even though I think they make us even more dynamic) just filling in I think is enough for rookie receivers.
