Saints sign WR Joe Morgan

RaginCajun83 · 04-03-2015, 01:23 PM

My expectations equal that of the Wilson signing. If he makes the team and helps them win then awesome. If he gets cut in preseason, YAWN on to the next guy

Knows the system: Step 1, Run Route, Step 2, get open, Step 3 catch pass.

I thought Payton sent a message to the team......this has the feel of mixed signals to me. I'm not sure what to think except we were dang low on receivers and he is nothing more than insurance.. He's been here four years and hasn't been all that yet. Here's to hoping this is the season the light comes on.

NINE safeties.

I'm not sure you could call more than 3 of the 9 WRs. If Morgan makes the team Brees is in trouble.

I've been on this guy's bandwagon for a long time. He has all the tools to be a pro bowl WR. He's everything Stills is not. He goes across the middle, breaks tackles, can beat press coverage and catches with his hands more often than with his body. I could see a WR core of Cooks, Morgan and Toon being very productive. If we can protect Drew and run the football.

If he beats out the competition in camp great but this WR group scares the hell out of me. Take away Colston and Combined they have less TDs than Kelvin Benjamin and only beat his reception total by 10.

Well, no, he has been around 3 seasons and one of those he didn't play. Last year he played in 5 games.

And I don't mean to call you out on being wrong, but um he has 14 catches, thank you very much

Yes I can break out the Morgan Jersey again... I had a lot of hope for the guy... and maybe this will be his year ... when he is in the game the guy is a playmaker

If he can keep his **** together he could be special. I am all for another chance but thats it. One bad move and hope he gets shown the door.

as much as we wined and dined A.A. FOR 7 YEARS (seemed that long) with Arington . joe is much more fine tuned to the game, just needs to listen to the plays called and not free lancing on paytons time. he makes these off the wall catches that make prime time every weekend. and it tells me were not signing white or the Alabama slammer.

Even though he's only caught like 14 passes, the ones he does get are completely ridiculous grabs

He just needs to work on the short game, I've seen him drop countless screens and short slant passes.
