Re: Emmanuel Sanders

I guess there will always be differing opinions on a signing, but remember, he's not coming in to be our #1. Just to be a guy to take some pressure off of Thomas.

For that purpose, this is a good signing.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

Now go get Justin Jefferson and we’ll be on fire.

That and some beef up front. Maybe LB too.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

The move is okay.

I don’t see the difference between Ginn and Sanders. They both have similar skill sets that we couldn’t leverage very well for the last 2 years. However, if we see Hill get more passing snaps Sanders could have more success than Ginn.

Would rather we get a big body target in the draft, but that can still happen, just not much upside with Sanders in this offense.

You really don’t see a difference between Ginn and Sanders??

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

I don't believe the Saints org view (I'm responding to B&G post) this as just a lateral move. Sanders is definitely an upgrade, excellent route runner and the ability to make plays in the 4th quarter … in big moments. Ginn can't do that & often disappeared (1 catch in the post season) when MT was triple teamed.

I don't think the Niners reach the SB if they wouldn't have signed EM pre trade deadline. He was an added weapon they needed.

Brees now has another weapon he can trust to be there when the ball is delivered.

Re: Emmanuel Sanders

Hope it’s not a year to late for him. Hope we draft Jefferson because he’s a e. Sanders 2.0 if u ask me
