Pierre didn’t invent the screen game but he’s the best I’ve ever seen run it.
Drew to Devery on the long ball was a thing of beauty.
Porter is my hero for what he did in the NFCCG and the SB.
Shon is on my list simply because he’s Mike Evans daddy.

No need to be sorry, bro! This is your list of greatest and it’s how you feel. All the players, you list are worthy!

If I define greatest as a combination of my favorite/best, the Saints have had my list would be:
1) Drew
2) Ricky Jackson
3) Colston
4) Reggie Bush
5) Lattimore

Note: Mills and Roaf are not on the list only because they had great success with other teams so that tarnishes it. They are top 10.

I realize Deuce (or Ingram) should replace Reggie…but I loved the excitement he brought to the field. Along with his name recognition, and how he made all the defense focus on him, I honestly don’t think we win a Super Bowl without him on the team.

1. Drew Brees

3. Devery Henderson

5. Marshon Lattimore

Cam makes my top 10 though.

Henderson and Porter don't even make the list.
Ricky Jackson,
Swilling
Roaf
Morton Anderson
Even Jahri Evans, Mike Mckenzie, Greer and that's off the top of my head.

Henderson was great and a crucial contributor during our hay day but far from one of the best. I'm not even sure id put any of those guys ahead of the ones I've listed except Brees. Lattimore I'll give you, especially if he stays the course but the others were just important pieces. Cam definitely goes in there.

The heart award goes to Jason David.

Derek Carr & Drew Brees similarities are scary..
