Our New & Improved Darren Sproles???

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Let's be honest, Sproles isn't getting any younger. While he may still have value, it seems age and injuries may have gotten the best of him. Luckily for us, there is a guy of similar stature coming up in this ...

Our New & Improved Darren Sproles???

Let's be honest, Sproles isn't getting any younger. While he may still have value, it seems age and injuries may have gotten the best of him.

Luckily for us, there is a guy of similar stature coming up in this draft. You may have heard of him.

Fast as hell, decent route runner but has hands of stone. Outside of kickoffs, I can't see the immediate impact we need in the black and gold.

He's a burner. Sproles was never a burner. Hes always been quicker then fast. We see him get caught from behind a lot. No catching this kid from the back.

I want Dexter McCluster.

I'll pass on Thomas but I would take a 3rd or 4th for Sproles and get another draft pick to use.

Fast, shifty and has good vision. But I also noticed the fantastic blocking he has. Great down field and initial blocking.

If we cant get him , may want to look into getting Dri Archer ... Who's even faster and would fit that role perfectly ...
