Wide Reciever

I'll leave it here ...

Can anyone honestly say you're comfortable with the Saints chances if say the 49ers or Vikings can take away MT13 and our running game struggles against a stout front? How will the Saints move the ball then without a capable receiver who can catch and get reasonable separation?? Cook, Ginn and Tre have yet to deliver consistently.

This offense has performed well, however it would be better served with a competent #2 opposite CGM. He'd have even more opportunities without bracket coverage.

It is what it is ... I'm just a arm chair GM but I surely hope the Saints front office/ scouts are targeting a WR in the 2020 draft and not un drafted guys who will need year(s) to develop.

Of course not. Exactly this

This! We fans tend to have short memories. It's almost like everyone forgot what happened the second time we played the rams last year in the NFC championship game (no I'm not talking about the blown call). I'm talking how they put a bigger corner on Michael Thomas and doubled him whenever they could to force other receivers to beat us. That's the only reason that game ended up being close. Drew was forced to hold on to the ball longer with CGM being bracketed and no one else could consistently get separation.

Another wideout isn't necessarily to try to balance out the offense and take targets away from CGM but rather when CGM isn't an option due to coverage Brees has another outlet to go to other than Kamara out the backfield.

If for whatever reason we didn't pick up another playmaker like Dez that can at least draw attention we better commit to running the ball like crazy with Kamara/Murray. If we at least do that we can get other guys open down the field off the play action.

The majority on this topic agrees ,if we were the jury against Payton place we would slap him upside his head to get a grip/ wr
