Almost our entire offense is getting older and nostalgic. Its time for a change. But its hard for that to happen when Brees wants Colston to be his Wayne. We need younger receivers, we have Cooks and Stills, but Colston is holding us back with his drops. No need to get a top everydown back if he won't be that with us. Mike Davis will not work if we cannot commit to him(assuming he declares he's one of the top backs), he could take a few years to get going like Ingram has. And from what I have seen Robinson isn't Ingram. OL yes its time to get younger there but we also need to get a new receiving core.

I agree with our WRs as well. Meachem has been basically a no show this season and Colston is having a bad season per his standards. He is 31 and, though he'll still put up 100 yard games here and there, he has had issues with drops (but so have other players) and it's time to hand the mantle over to someone else. We have two solid WR picks in the last two season with Stills and Cooks, and we'll see if Brandon Coleman's hands improved next season and if he can make an impact (which having a 6'6 WR would be amazing!). Morgan is still up in the air for me, but I agree we need some more young talent. But I'm a firm believer everything starts up front. Brees can make even mediocre WRs look good when he has time (Lance Moore, Devery Henderson, Meachem, etc.) and we need some new blood on the Oline, especially in the middle where Brees has had the most pressure in the last two seasons.

On the defensive side, we need two faster, better coverage middle linebackers if we plan on staying in a 3-4. Lofton and Hawthorne just aren't good in coverage, and that's been Lofton's knock against him since the Atlanta days. Then we need better talent at cornerback as well. Outside of Lewis, it's pretty bad. SJB is rookie who hasn't played, and many CBs have a hard initial time, so I'll give him a couple years before i cast judgement. But the bottom line, this team is getting old and there's a lack of talent at some positions, so it may take a couple years to get everything back to where we want it to be
