Plenty mocks have us going Justin Jefferson at 24. As far as Sanders getting beat out in camp...it’s like you’ve never seen that guy play before. He’s an extremely savvy and talent wide receiver who never had to rely on elite athleticism to get open.

I imagine they will find someone in the draft to fill that role and he will be used mostly when Taysom is in. No use breaking the bank for a WR who will only be an actual target for only about 20% of the snaps (assuming that’s how they use Hill.)

Another Meredith? The Dude, you really believe Emmanuel compares to Cameron Meredith? You're just joking right? Kind of like how you thought we would cut Latavius Murray by week 4 in 2019?

C'mon man, that's just silly talk.

Either people don’t know as much about football as they think, or they don’t watch any football other then Saints games. Tedd Ginn and Cameron Meredith on par with Emmanuel Sanders? Similar skill sets? In what way? Smh.

That was Beastmode. Of course, he is saying the same about Sanders. That makes me feel even that much more confident in picking up Sanders.

19-0 Baby!

I know, right? Three completely different players in style and talent.
