Saints new WR...Patrick Crayton #86

biloxi-indian · 08-12-2013, 10:21 AM

New #Saints WR Patrick Crayton is 34, didn't play in regular season last year. But he was a longtime valuable backup receiver/punt returner for Cowboys - including first two years with Sean Payton in 2004-2005. Usually 500-600 yards per year in Dallas. Had two punt return TDs in 2009. Then spent 2010-2011 with San Diego (combined for 51 catches, 762 yards, 2 TDs in two years with Chargers).

Sean Payton is definitely back, he reminds me of a candy addict in the candy store, piling up the candy on the counter by the cash register...then at the last minute he grabs some more M&M's and throws them on top of the stack, while they ring him up. It's NEVER enough. The guy is addicted to offensive toys, no question about it!

He needs to stick his toys on a separate field with a 4th string QB and not take reps away from his present projects.

I have noticed Sean is bringing in WR/ players.... WR/PR, WR/KR... Ive a feeling we will end up with the presently assumed starting WR corps... but have ST stacked with viable WRs. WR's have the speed and hands for special teams, thus keeping our WR corps healthy but having backups in the trunk if needed.

Very good point. Nothing like bringing in a ST player that already knows the system.

How about a ST player who can tackle for less than a 20 yard gain?

Makes good sense.

You know with talk like that you can hang up a career in politics?

They might be a resume enhancement if you ran as a democrat.

Perhaps you can trojan horse their agenda for us?

BTTT: I think Payton is loading up on receivers because all of our WR's have a history of being frequently injured. Its wise to have 2 or 3 sitting around waiting for a call if one of our guys goes down for a few weeks.

I'm relieved that we didn't go after an OLB recently. It shows me the Galette and Wilson injuries are probably very minor.

I don't think we need another WR. What do we do with Roby. Preston did great. Tanner did great. Toon did a good job. Colston and Moore...we know the story. Stills...meh (he better catch those bombs from now on). At least he's fast. Bring in more LBs or DBs because that's what we really need.
