Sean Payton: Ted Ginn Jr. still the fastest player on the field

K Major · 03-31-2017, 02:20 PM

Saints coach Sean Payton said he has a “crystal-clear vision” for new receiver Ted Ginn Jr. in the New Orleans offense.

Most of that vision is pretty obvious. Ginn is a blazing-fast vertical threat who was signed the day before the Saints traded away blazing-fast receiver Brandin Cooks.

Payton pointed out during his media session at the NFL meetings on Wednesday that the two receivers are “a little different” and Ginn is a little bigger at 5-foot-11. But Payton said “he’ll do some of the same things.”

“I see him playing at flanker. I see him being a guy that can take the top off the coverage. I like what this guy does,” Payton said of Ginn, a 10-year veteran who just had the best two-year stretch of his career with the Carolina Panthers, combining for 98 catches, 1,491 yards and 14 touchdowns in 2015 and 2016...

When ever he has a clear vision on Offense he really hasn't been wrong everyone has been successful.

He's always been a burner. Get Johnson to work a bit of his magic on Ginn's hands and....

wait for it...

Championship!

looks great running down the field. all he has to is catch it

Just keep sending him on post patterns and throw underneath. He's most effective when the ball is not thrown to him.

Dude is old but if we can get one good year out of him like Beer Man Lewis this is going to work really well. He is still fast, maybe not take the top off Cook fast but good enough. Ball won't be going to him most of the time anyway but he also can't be stuck in a corner either. Leave him open and Brees will find easily.

I don't care one bit about what he does as a wide receiver... I just want the dude returning kicks and punts.
