The Saints already have a top receiver prospect on staff. They already have 3 pretty reliable guys behind Colston.

Can the great cat guru answer these questions please? Because those are the questions that will make the difference between going deep in the playoffs in 2008 and sitting home again wondering who'll line up opposite Colston.

Yes the defense does need to improve. But he is bringing up a good point here. Take away Colston, Bush and Patton catches, we do do not have squat. We have to get Mech to live up to his draft pick first. After that all the other WR not mentioned can be replaced. They are nothing special. Patton aint getting any younger either. The position is not that strong. Colston is the only thing we have for the future. Mech is in limbo so I will say one and a half.

Plus Patton is older than Grandma Moses. Chances are, he will lose a step soon. Bush is not a true receiver so that only leave Colston. Personally, I think Henderson (minus the drops) is a player. His stats are off the charts.
