Yes he can. We just don't need any more dropped passes. Drew will get the ball to them if they can get open and catch the ball.

How long is a piece of string and how high is up?

Josh Hill has some big plays and tds because teams were double teaming Graham and others and lost him in the coverage

Less opportunity for that this year

Guy is young, can block, is cheap, good sport

it is very possible. Drew will throw him open. all he will need to do is go after it and catch it. plus take the beating jimmy did. he will get hung out to dry in every game. tall WR/TE with so so speed always do.

plus jimmy's route tree was never really that complex so that helps.

can he catch the drew brees patented back shoulder throw regularly is the big question

With Spiller and Cooks, Hill will still get lost in coverage.

I watched the interview with Payton

As soon as the media brought up Josh Hill, Payton gave the widest smile I've ever seen him make

He looks genuinely excited about how good Hill could be for us.

8. Back to Payton: In the wake of trading away Jimmy Graham, the Saints coach raved about Josh Hill, repeatedly saying that he "loves" the third-year tight end. The coach also praised a pair of practice squad wideouts -- presumably Brandon Coleman and Jalen Saunders -- as emerging players.

9. Payton also called the trade for former Seahawks center Max Unger a move that was "absolutely" made to help keep Brees upright on passing downs.
