I have not had the opportunity to ever go to football training.

In Florida I have been to a lot of spring training & those players (especially the elites) can be some real *****s about signing autographs.

i guess it is one of the reasons I don't do baseball much anymore ( that & I am a Cubs fan )

Yes, that is my son. Thank you, I think he is handsome as well.
He lives most of the year in Anchorage. He comes every summer and we attend all of the open practices.
If you ever have an opportunity to attend, the players are all very nice and take the time for pictures. All except Drew. He signs autos every day and doesn't have time to stop for pix. He is mobbed, as you probably suspect.
The team does it right. Another reason to love our Saints.

He is a nice looking young man. Does he look more like his mother?jk
I missed TC this year. The Saints are a class act and they love to interact with the public.

They both looked good but it was the Raiders

I think it's pretty safe to say that sean will never draft a wr in the first round

Long time lurker, first time poster.

I see Stills as an amped up Lance Moore. Like Lance Moore running on jet fuel. I think it will take him a season or so to reach his potential, but I think on this team he can be a poor man's (but not very poor) Victor Cruz, and that's no knock on Stills.

Toon, I see as Marques Colston's little brother trying to follow in his big brother's footsteps (again, not a knock on Toon in any way). I would love for him to follow Colston around in practice hanging on to everything he learns from Colston. In the same way that Chase Daniel was said to "be in Drew's back pocket" during TC, practices and on gameday, Toon should learn everything he can from Colston.

They're are future #1 and #2, I have no doubt about it.

i Loved what i saw as well. and was so excited when Stills was selected this year! big surprise but for some reason when i saw stills on the board that late and it was our turn to pick i was hoping the saints selected him but thought it was a long shot. to say the least, I was overjoyed it played out the way it did. i was telling my brother before and friday nite only confirmed in a way that i believe Still can be a star in this league. hybrid slot/out wide receiver...kind of like a mixture of Danny Amendola/Victor Cruz/Randall Cobb, Which says alot. but we can only wait and see if the Kid reaches his full potential and hopefully with Sean and Drew he will.

big time step up for sure. Micky loves the cap numbers with both

Toon does have that baby Colston vibe about him. Catching all those little slants and screens, breaking tackles for first downs, and then going deep on you down the sideline with a back shoulder catch when you stop paying attention.

I figured Stills would be one of those guys that sits out his first year but if he can keep playing like this he'll be getting real playing time. I'm barely concerned even if Colston and Moore both miss games at the same time during the season.

I agree, but don't jinx it! (smile)
