You do realize what you did at the beginning and end there?

Max Unger is 29 years old and is an All-Pro and will be a great improvement in our run game...

Armstead...older? He's still in his rookie (3rd round) contract; and if he moves to right tackle, he'll be the best right tackle in the league...

Evans is old, but he has been injured; and he's a multiple All-Pro so don't put him down with Old Yeller just yet...

There is only one football; we had to get some talent to the other side of the ball...

Most teams don't even have two receivers like we have at the top of our depth chart...

The young guys now have a year in the system and just need the reps for a true evaluation...

Josh Hill will be a league leader in receiving, for sure among tight ends; Ben Watson is a tremendous leader for out team; and let's see what the UDRFA dwarves dragged in from the mine before we condemn, okay?!?

Well, nobody had question marks about the Saints - and we were all wrong!

Finally a WR with a shot 6-foot-5, 204 4.5 seconds, vertical 36 inches and board 0 feet, three inches.

"The (New Orleans) Saints have had three different guys evaluate him," Turk said. "I think the (New York) Giants have shown a lot of interest. That's the way it appears anyway. Those two stick out, but there are others."

1-on-1 with WR Taylor Belsterling, Saints minicamp invite

keep an eye on this kid. he might be the only WR we keep from this less than impressive rookie pool. mighty shallow. i would not dive into at all

Talk about under the radar player... he was ineligible due to too many semesters already completed as a senior; in other words, too much school. Hope he works out as Colston clone/replacement.

He's likely a PS candidate.

Barring injuries our 5 or 6 WR's will likely be...

1. Colston
2. Cooks
3. Toon
4. Morgan
5/6. Coleman and/or Jones
6/7. Saunders (Special teams)

You are not wrong.
To paraphrase an Alan Parsons quote:
The draft, Euphoria, has always been there, and it's hard to be around the draft and try to be totally natural. You never shake that off.
