My first thought after seeing his highlight reels was....damn, just think what he will do with Payton calling the plays and Bree's at QB.

Cooks will open the field up for Graham and the passing game will open up the running game. I think every team that picked ahead of the Saints' in this year's draft screwed up royal by letting the us get our hands on Cooks.

If covering Graham gave opposing D coordinators nightmares the prospect of covering Graham and Cooks will be giving then heart attacks. Better have 911 on speed dial and the defib unit on the sidelines.

Imagine going 4 wide with Colston, Stills, Cooks, Graham and Morgan against a dime package, then bust up the middle with Khiry Robinson.

Khiry at full speed at the 2nd level versus nothing but DB's. OUCH!!!

Pick your poison. Quick and rather painless or slow and very painful. Either way, you're dead.

And let's not forget we now have a D secondary and pass rush designed to give the ball back to Brees. 2009 de ja vu.....all over again.

Agree, but I think this team has many more A-players than that team did.

How are they able to have 4 WRs, a TE, and a RB on the field at the same time ?

But yeah I am enthusiastic too. Won't be long.

Graham would be the 4th receiver, I didn't mean 4 WR's. Quit nitpickin'

LOL....No seriously man, you listed:

1. Colston

2. Stills

3. Cooks

4. Graham

5. Morgan

With Khiry in the backfield as # 6.

Though now after typing all that out, I'm intrigued by what hopefully will be an occasional 5-wide set with that crew!
