Saints position outlook: Michael Thomas has become one of the best receivers in the league, but New Orleans might look for other upgrades

If we're gonna spend money it should be on a big target WR or TE, not a slot receiver who can convert on 3rd downs and red zone targets...

How about Albert Wilson from the Chiefs?

Boy, would have many people forgotten Snead's bad season had he completed that screen option pass to Kamara vs the Vikes - could you imagine?

It would not have mattered. Our problem was not beating the rams.

Jarvis Landry made the pro bowl catching balls from Carson Palmer. We'd definetely have the best hands from a WR duo in the league and most probably the best duo in the league period. Draft DJ Chark! If he pairs with Julio Jones or Mike Evans or Cam Newton gets him we're in trouble. He'll probably fall in the draft below his talent level because of his lack of production in LSUs woeful passing game. Russel Gage the other LSU WR could be a late round steal too. Chark had a 75+yd catch, run and return for a TD at LSU. Only Kevin Faulk did that in Baton Rouge before Chark. He can fly. He's 6"3. Yes I'm an LSU homer but that don't mean I'm wrong.

Jarvis Landry for Mark Ingram. Draft Darius Guice, Arden Key and DJ Chark. Saints end up with the best WR, RB and DE duos in the NFL with the best RB duo in NFL history. Mark my words Guice is the best RB ib the draft. He broke Leonard Fournette's single game rushing record. He's another Deuce McCallister caliber player with talent and character.
