Meachem
Stills
Jimmy Graham
Brn Watson

All put up career numbers before falling pretty flat if not with him
1.Meachem was a overrated receiver to begin with and never lived up to his worth as a first rounder.
2.Stills has actually done pretty well for a number three receiver.
3.Graham's still on the same team he was traded to.
4.Watson got hurt, so who knows what happens with him healthy.

Graham has been a bust for Seattle

Watson has never put up numbers he did with Brees and he was an old vet when he came here,he wasnt getting better

Stills hasnt come close to 1000 yards again.

Meachem was still productive under Brees. Was generally good for 6/700 yards. Goes to Chargers and just breaks 200

Stills has more TDs for Miami last year than he did with NO in either of his two seasons.

One year he has had good TD numbers
He was the 5th option in the red zone for the saints behind Graham,Hill, Colston, Watson.

Drew has shown year after year he can make players better


If Cooks was as great as some people want to say why were teams not knocking down the door offering a mid round first or late 1 and 4th.

3 picks in the first 42. That's 3 probable starters on the defense. I like it.

I would just give them the 3rd back. They can't afford Butler after the Gilmore signing.
