Thomas didn't seem to have much trouble against the likes of Richard Sherman.

If we could get 5, 18 and 3rd from the titans for cooks and our 11 this could be a scenario:

#5 Solomon Thomas DE Stanford
#18 Quincy Wilson CB Florida
#44 Chris Wormley DE/DT Michigan
#76 David Webb QB California
#83 Noah Brown WR Ohio State
#118 Pat Elfein G/C Ohio State

TELL ME THIS WOULDN'T BE A MONSTER DRAFT FOR US. With our 6th and 7th rounder we need an OT and maybe another WR.

The need for receivers as glaring before the Thomas pick. This front office is playing the Fleener redemption hope card.

Sherman was not on Cooks. Well, he had 60 something yards and no TDs. and here we go again.

If we don't go to the super bowl this season we probably won't go to one at all.

And no one had film on Thomas last year. Now top CBs will be gameplanning for him.

Will,
What the hell are you talking about ?

If it was up to the "media" Payton would be coaching the LA Rams now. Remember that stupid rumor, This sounds just as dumb

Here is the deal. If Forster is our guy we have to move up to get him!!! We can't sit back and wait for him to fall. Could we find another deep threat guy??? I think so. We move up and grab that LB who is going to cornersone our D for years to come.

Players that can get their hands on a poorly thrown pass and get yards.
It also sets us up for the post Brees era. A new qb is gonna need as much help as possible. With cooks in the lineup and Thomas coming out balling we may very well have one of the best receiving corps in the league.

Is there any indication that any of this will happen soon? With the way Brees takes care of his body and the fact that he is one of the best ever, it is likely he will be the Saints QB, playing at a high level, for another four to five years.
