Saints Pick 2.09 - DE Isaiah Foskey

Boston Saint · 04-28-2023, 08:00 PM

There were games last year when Trequan Smith was our best WR on the field because Olave was hurt. Games where we were looking for RBs off the street. I’m not saying TE was the big position of need. I am saying we finished worse in O production than D. Carr may help (although his stats were not much better than Dalton’s). The RB we signed, Williams, may help. But we need offensive weapons. I guess people don’t realize our D outperformed our O last year.

Plenty of players to pick yet, Boston. One thing that hasn't changed since I started watching football is that it starts in the trenches. The other teams in the NFC South have been picking up shiny new toys. Those toys won't be as useful when the Saints D-Line is disrupting the backfield of their offense.
I'm pretty geeked about the picks so far.

It’s gonna be hard to find 1 game where Trequan was even our 3rd best receiver last season.

The first Carolina game after Thomas was lost to his injury. He had four catches in five targets for 105. Olave went 9 of 13 for 147. That was pretty much it.

But no one knows this stat without research.
We don’t have to look up whether or not Olave, Shaheed, MT3, AK, JJohnson or Taysom had good games last season, we just know it.

I’ll give TreQuan this, I was rolling with him towards the end of the ‘21 season. He played some monster games that got overlooked. Then he’s just been ‘ew ever since.

Not really hard. October 16th against Bengals. Thomas, Olave, and Landry all out. Trequan was clearly the most experienced receiver we had on the field. He lead the team in TD receptions and Yards over J Johnson, Kirkwood and Callaway. Johnson and 1 more reception than him.
