I think the drop-off would be minimal. Especially considering we likely sign a WR around the 4 million range that fits what we need.

. . . he works great in Payton's offense but somewhere else...without a supporting cast I'm willing to bet his production would fall way off.[/QUOTE]

And Colston knows this, so his 'no hometown discount' may be a bluff.

Unless Brees asks for a ridiculous amount, the Saints will pay him what he wants/is worth.

Nicks will stay because he protects Brees.

Unless Colston goes for money, I believe he will stay with the Saints.

He has to realize that he was (potentially), 1:37 minutes away from is 2nd Super Bowl appearance and most likely win.

Staying with the Saints gives him his best shot at getting to his 2nd Super Bowl.

Some guys, though, are all about the Benjamins. Hopefully.....Colston isn't one of those guys.
