Well Snead has to worry about his role

A gun-empty set with Cooks, Fleener, Boldin, Michael Thomas and Snead would be pretty nice, and I'm sure Sean thinks so too.

I don't think we have the O-line to run a five wide set often. We need additional blockers for Drew. jmho

True. Fleener and/or Boldin might need to line up next a tackle to chip a defender. I envision Drew getting the ball out fast too Patriots-style.

Colston missed games last year, Cooks missed 6,and Snead even missed one. It's a long season.
Seven guys caught 30 or more passes. Plenty of love to go around.

All I can say is why didn't they catch the balls enough last year. If a receiver is on the field for all of the snaps. Then he makes 7 out of 10 targets. If he's on the field for half, he makes 2 of 5.

Also, call me crazy Brees didn't really spread it around last year, at least not in the redzone, which is where we mostly stalled. Cooks, Watson, and Colston(yes, Colston) were the main redzone targets. That has to change.
