Re: 2022 NFL receiving corps rankings
If our O line is solid, with what we have at wr we should be very good.

Re: 2022 NFL receiving corps rankings
I believe you are right in your assessment. We have the receiving core to be very good if the O-line clicks and Winston stays healthy. Olave looks like a smooth route runner who will be very good with us. I hope can't call Mike gets motivated with him on the team.

Re: 2022 NFL receiving corps rankings
It gets me very nervous that Mike isn't ready yet. I know the Saints will not take chances with this guy and would hold him back anyway, just hope the situation with MT isn't worse than what is being reported. Kinda makes me wonder if MT's situation is the real reason Landry was signed?

Re: 2022 NFL receiving corps rankings
Honestly, MT has had the majority of his game time with Drew Brees. I don't think it can be underestimated that Brees has made many receivers look good during his career, many that went on to do nothing with other teams.
Not popular decision, but I would have parted ways a couple of seasons ago. |

You just sound resentful that he got paid. From all indications he has been working his ass off to get ready for the 2022 season after having to undergo a second surgery this past November. His salary is a bargain as compared to the new deals all the other top WR's are receiving. I really don't get the whole lack of hunger claim. |
