Best compensatory pick ever .

The best player in NFL history to never play in a Pro Bowl.

All 72 of Colston’s touchdown catches were thrown by Drew Brees, making the duo the sixth-most prolific all-time in scoring pass plays.

I guess Joe Montana and Jerry Rice are #1?

Congratulations guys.

He looks oddly like Parcells.

A shame Colston fell off a cliff at the end. I guess injuries piled up and there was nothing left. Started dropping easy grabs. Reality set in quick on the non forgiving hands of time but by far my favorite Saints WR. Dude was a beast and never ran his mouth. Just played the damn game and left it on the field.

Reggie should have been a CB. He was never willing to take the abuse of a RB and it showed. He would have had a much better and longer career as a DB. He did it a little it college and did well. Should have changed positions IMO. He was not a RB but did ok.

I get nostalgic thinking about the era of both those guys.

Worth it IMO. Maybe I’m getting softer as I get older.

I think Reggie had somewhat of an imperfect storm, he was trying to live up to impossible expectations, which probably wasn’t his fault. Sean would probably use him differently today than he did then.

But he was a Saint, a great special teams/screen weapon, and was I think great for the city and fan base nationally.

Footnote -

Sean Payton touched on it at the induction ceremony but 6 members of the 2006 Saints draft class played 10 or more years in the league.

That was an awesome draft class.

Colston is my favorite Saints WR for now. Michael Thomas has the potential to be the best WR of all time. Bush was just fine but never consistent enough in retrospect.
