Teams are going to exploit our lack of variety in the passing game:
Thomas with 90 catches followed by Smith at 22. No one else (WR) over 12. Need to line AK up in the slot more to take attention away from Thomas

At first I was kind of excited to see how Marshall would do in this offense. Now I'm just annoyed. It's been damn near a month. I'm starting to wonder if he's going to contribute at all.

He's veteran depth and nothing more. He was a fall back plan B to the Bryant signing. I think they expected Bryant to contribute but Marshall is more of a "will suit up if others can't go" player. He has no upside, no separation speed, suspect hands and frankly isn't a better option than the young guys. He's here just in case we lose more players at WR and hopefully he's up to speed enough not to run the wrong route altogether and cost us turnovers. I'll be surprised if he contributes at all. Would have liked to see us bring Benjamin in for a work out before KC nabbed him up.

He will be activated in the playoffs if someone goes down. Insurance.

Would be nice to have someone else for Drew to through a TD to and not hAve to share a record with that Ryan jackass

It’s all a coy ploy for the playoffs I believe , Brees is not looking no one else but Thomas Payton fooling teams thinking we’re 1 dememsional then boom we unleash the beast jmo

Just don't see a 34yo WR who's had a history of difficulty learning offenses and making correct reads fitting into this team at this junction of the season...

Tough luck Dez Bryant got injured.

He could have been a solid #2 WR in this offense. Or least a guy to keep the chains moving on crucial 3rd down. Outside of Thomas, not a lot of experience at WR. I won't be surprised if Brandon is waived soon.

I think we have one more designation to return available and Ginn is eligible after this week I think.

Yeah, also read a tweet from Nick Underhill at the New Orleans Advocate who confirmed what AG was correct about as well...

Hadn't realized we get two back now (might as well not have a limit, imo)...
