So it should be a healthy competition between those two.![]()
Carmichael compared him a little to Colston, but I think that may be pushing it. Marques is the same general size as both Toon and Arrington, but he has a better knack at this time for getting open and is more physical, and does a better job at yards after catch. I still like the pick though. |
If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

As stated in the comment above what's good about this pick is that Toon looks to be a more polished WR than Arrington etc
People said that Colston wasn't fast but he still burns people, I think that if the reports are true about this guy he will be contributing early, he may not be a burner but you can't have too many solid route runners with excellent hands, very good pick can't wait to see him play. Sean Payton will be annoyed that he can't draw up plays to utilise his newest toy |
