Saints molding Michael Thomas into their version of Julio Jones
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 92 catches WITH Cooks on the roster. Dang... Will be interesting to see how he handles #1 coverage....

Re: Saints molding Michael Thomas into their version of Julio Jones
Interesting Head to head stat on Ginn vs Cooks in 2016 :
Brandin Cooks Yards Receiving 1173 Rushing 30 Return 2 Total yards 1205 ----------------------------------------- Ted Ginn Jr Yards Receiving 752 Rushing 98 Return 593 Total yards 1443 Special team yardard and field position TG Jr can provide will be golden. Even at the age of 32, this guy has a lot of good football left. |

Re: Saints molding Michael Thomas into their version of Julio Jones
He will become one of the best WRs in the league.... he has the mentality to do so.... I don't think his ego will get in the way either (cooks) ... he can be a colston but better dare I say ? Let's hope he can stay healthy ! Excited for his future !

Colston will say he is the best receiver in the NFL very very soon.

Re: Saints molding Michael Thomas into their version of Julio Jones
I am tired of having "versions" of other players or other teams. Hopefully it winds up that other teams look for "versions" of Thomas.
Payton's "version" of seattles D blew. |

Re: Saints molding Michael Thomas into their version of Julio Jones
Let's hope putting him at a heavier weight than he's ever played doesn't increase his susceptibility to injury.
