How does this equate out of curiosity? Are you saying Brees would take fewer hits if he had a receiver who was open more often than the current group is because he would get rid of the ball more quickly?

Didn't say Colston was devoid of talent. Just that having Brees as his QB had more to do with his success in the NFL than anything.

Remember that Colston's first training camp in New Orleans was almost his last.

Having an elite receiver added to our group of WR's certainly wouldn't shorten his career.

Signing him would create a bigger rift on this board than the pro Bush/ anti Bush issue ever did!
