Offense pre camp analysis
Having written a defensive thread I thought I would follow with a offensive missive
QB Drew Brees gives us a HOF presence Father Time is the only opponent he should fear Teddy Bridgewater gives the Saints a quality backup that I feel gives a chance to win if God forgive Drew has to miss time Taysom Hill is a X factor weapon a great toy for Payton to torture DC all over the league OL Terron Armstead is a pro bowl caliber LT His durability is the only question that he leaves unanswered . Andrus Peat had a poor season due to injury we need him to return to health I fully expect Eric McCoy to fill the large shoes that Unger left with his retirement This is a vital spot that must be filled Nick Easton was brought in as veteran insurance and to play the role that Kelemente played as the six OL Larry Warford made the Pro bowl and is seen as pillar at his spot Ryan Ramczek is an ascending star at right Tackle The Saints are in the top of OL talent in the NFL It is a major reason that we have had top ranked offensive team for several years RB Kamara is as talented as any runner I have seen . Equally good as a receiver . A generational talent NUFF SAID Latavius Murray is a big tall thumper of a short yardage stud . He is a different type of back than Ingram. I am confident that we will find ways to use his gifts and that will continue to be effective in the running game Several good players will be in a dogfight for third spot and that is going to be something to watch during camp and the preseason . TE The addition of Jared Cook is arguably the biggest addition to our team this offseason. This is a area that we received little production . I am looking for big things . BIG things! Josh Hill will continue to do his thing and contribute. The third spot will be another camp battle. WR Mike Thomas will be briefly the highest paid WR in football and he deserves it. The biggest question is who is going to grab the #2 spot Ginn has been a consistent contributing player , his age is a concern. TeQuan Smith was drafted to fill this spot . He has shown some promise but seemed unable to secure the spot and was inconsistent as a rookie. Much the same could be said about all the others on the roster. Rishard Matthews is my favorite to fill this spot. I would not be surprised to seeus sign another veteran WR. FB Zach Line did a workman’s job and is the favorite to continue at FB This team has very few questions and it will be hard for any of the remaining members of the roster to make the team and I don’t know if I remember saying that ever Thoughts,Opinions, Comment? |

Re: Offense pre camp analysis
It will be best Offense ever - bar none. Barring injury.

Re: Offense pre camp analysis
I’d really like to see a 3rd WR step up. I think the addition of Cook will help that.

Re: Offense pre camp analysis
I like the fact that the Saints coaches/staff aren't waiting around for guys to "step up" and mature. We have addressed needs (TE, NT), brought in competition at corner back (Kayvon Webster) & WR (Rishard Matthews).
We are on a proactive mission to engage in competition. Camp is almost here. |

Re: Offense pre camp analysis
With Rishard Matthews, I love the diving catches he has. Those inches are necessary because if you don't dive, you don't catch the ball. That's a sign of someone that knows how to catch the ball.

Re: Offense pre camp analysis
Agree, but have you noticed how seldom receivers have to dive for Drew's throws.

TE
The addition of Jared Cook is arguably the biggest addition to our team this offseason. This is a area that we received little production . I am looking for big things . BIG things! Josh Hill will continue to do his thing and contribute. The third spot will be another camp battle. Alize' Mack wants a job and I think he has the ability to unseat Arnold. At worst, he could be coached (practice squad) up. |
