In the First Round, Saints Pick Wide Reciever Brandin Cooks

Yeah, there's no way to match up against all that at once. SP probably will want to adjust the offense to use more 3 WR sets. In theory either Colston or Graham will be matched up against a linebacker on almost every play.

He's gonna be the WR version of what we thought Bush would be.

He's Harvin/Jackson/Austin all rolled into one.

He's also just an inch shorter than everybody's favorite WR OBJ.

He's scrappy, great hands, great character, tough as a $2.00 steak, can start/stop on a dime, returns kicks and punts, great balance, and oh yeah, he's the freakin 2nd fastest player in the entire draft at a 4.31 40.

Meh. Hope you all are right. Doesn't do much good if you can't stop the other team from scoring though. I'm a little tired of these shoot outs.

We have the 4th rank overall defense on last year and the 4th rank offense but when the chips were down it was the offense that went missing

What shoot-outs? We didn't have any shootouts last year. Maybe the Pats game, but thats the only one I can think of.

And we were 4th best in the NFL in points allowed.

Were you talking about some other team?
