Reciever can help offensive woes

Part of the Saints offensive troubles are all the dropped passes. They have 3 solid big-play capable recievers (when healthy) in Horn, Stallworth, and Henderson, but my feelings are they lack a true possession reciever. Horn has been great at getting the team out of a 3rd and long jam in the past but he was not up to par this season. Who out there either a 3rd round or later pick or free-agent wise could help the Saints solve this problem.

Henderson wasn't solid in the least this past season. Stallworth was the only consistent player due to Horn's injury. Hopefully i hope they get rid of Horn but i doubt it. Reggie Wayne will be available but the Saints won't pay for him. In the draft I like Sinorice Moss but he'll go sometime in the first round. Perhaps we can get Skyler Green or Derek Hagan if he is coming out this year.

You won't find a fix for this in the draft. Receivers rarely make an impact in their first few years. The odds of us drafting a franchise QB is greater than drafting a receiver that will make an impact in his first two years.

I am in agreement we need some competition, whether it be from FA or draft really doesn't matter to me. I think if the group we have now feared they may lose their starting position they may just step up but nobody has been good enough to push them yet.

RE: Re: Reciever can help offensive woes

the biggest problem with our wr's is that they are all tiny. joe horn is our tallest wr at a towering 6'1, they you have stallworth at 6', henderson at 5'11, hakim at 5'10, and moore at 5'9. next time one of them scores a touchdown they should do an umpa lumpa dance.

i forgot lewis at 5'8. we also have lyman at 6'4 and poole at 6'2, but they are not exactly worth of starting on any team.
