He is anything but a Cam Meredith 2.0.
Are they watching the games bruh? Ain’t no way.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

I have way more confidence in Sanders than I did Merideth. Anyone who watched football last season vs the season before we signed Merideth should feel the same.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

Interview (10 min) from earlier this morning with Sanders on FIRST TAKE ... I didn't realize Emmanuel had been to the Super Bowl 3 times. Desire and hunger is still there and wants another ring.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

I don't understand the hate on Sanders. Sanders is a #1 WR for most teams and we got him cheap. I really like the offensive additions this off season (aside from Peats contract).

Still concerned about the D-line... lot of depth, not a lot of game-changers.
st thomas and RefsRobbedUs like this.

Everson Griffen or Clowney perhaps?

For me, I see good talent on defense and enough to get us where we want to be however I'm more concerned about Dennis Allen and the need to be better at situational play-calling.

Too many late moment blunders on the back end that has cost us from advancing. IDK, maybe having Jenkins helps orchestrate, facilitate things for us in 2020. Essentially having a QB on defense who understands coverages.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

Clowney is a no no maybe Griffen. Clowney seems like a guy who will fall off the map after this big pay day.

Wouldn’t be shocked if Granderson makes a move on Davenport

If that happens, then the Saints failed on the scouting of Davenport.

It's not hate. He's just old. 33.5 when the season starts. He does have good hands but he does get hurt but people only want to look at last season when he got hurt the prior two seasons.



I bet if it was last season and we sign him people say no, he got hurt the prior two seasons....meh.
