He'll probably end up in New England for a 4th round pick.

Bulk defense... we have some areas of need on offense also. A sure handed receiver and a reliable tightend. Both Miller and Johnson are upcoming free agents.

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

still tho we need another wr to go wit colston....patten is in the league another two years three at the most.....

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

There will be receivers available in the future. Right now, as SaintFan said, the focus should be on defense. We need DL, LB's, S, and CB SO MUCH MORE than we need additional receivers. Meacham might work out, Colston is a keeper, and Patten is fine for another year or two. So there will be time for receivers later.

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

Well if we wouldnt waste our time on garbage like J. David we wouldnt be in this situation! You cant loose focus of the offense because our D is hurting... You have to veiw it as a whole, make change as whole... Yes Chad may be a bit of distraction but he is undoubtly one the top recievers in the NFL! With Drew throwing to him and Colston they would cause problems for every seconday in the NFL. Just my .2 please dont beat up on me about it, I know I am new here;)

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

Having Johnson would be a dream come true. He can compliment Colston. I would love to see that happen.

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

Dont get me wrong, hes an awesome reciever but all the extra bs celebration and fines would look bad on the Saints as a team. I dont think Sean would put up with his antics.

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

agreed...but i think he would respect sean enough to NOT be a wanker.

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

Saints getting Ocho Cinco???? lol keep dreaming

Re: Ocho Cinco in black and gold
 

Simple question: Why change what is not broken? The offense suffered terrible injuries during the season and it just kept right on clicking. After 2 years we should truly understand that the offense runs through Brees, and as long as we keep him clean, the offense will be fine.

We really don't need any more offensive firepower. Let's not forget that in the receiver corps that the 1st round, BPA pick, the Saints made still hasn't hit the field.

All we need to do with receivers is let Henderson try out free agency, resign Patton, get Meachem ready to play, and secure a TE that can stay healthy. That's all.

The defense is busted, broken, and battered. It needs to be fixed wholesale. Fixing the defense is the best thing anyone can do for the current Saints offense. Putting out a defense that can get off the field consistently will allow Payton, Colston, Bush, and Brees to continue their offensive excellence for quite a few years down the road. Fixing the defense will propel this team into the realm of consistent excellence.

Nothing need be done to the offense.

Fix the defense. Period.
