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.

Aside from Randy Moss for a year or two Tom Brady has been throwing to many players that wouldn't be on most teams' rosters, let alone starting at #1 or 2 as a WR and winning SBs. Wasn't Edelman a running back when Welker and Moss were the WRs?

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