I don't understand why that would be a goal at all. There are so many posts here recently about the receiver core needing leadership. But there isn't a single solitary shread of evidence that I can identify that justifies that need.

If we had receivers that had issues like Bryant from Pittsburgh or Gordon from Cleveland, then I could see the need. But has anyone seen anything from our receiver corps other than coming to work and producing?

What's this thought on the supposed leadership deficit? I really don't understand where this is coming from.

It's literally just a camp body signing, he may not even make it past the first wave of cuts.

We sent vincent Brown to IR so we signed another veteran to fill his spot.

If we desperately needed a WR to play and give leadership, boldin would have been signed.

We tried to sign Boldin, he preferred the Lions.

I believe that's the reality. I'm just trying to understand this perception that the Saints receivers needs a veteran leader.

Maybe. But why is there this seemingly pervasive feeling that the Saints need that type of play and leadership from the WR position?

Keep in mind folks, Brandon Coleman isn't actually that good. He had a couple of drops in practice today. The competition for the 4th WR spot and potentially a 5th spot if we keep 5 is likely wide open.
