You can't use Wayne's stats as a #2 or #3 WR and compare them to someone who is used as a #1.Of course the #1 is going to have better stats. The #1 will get a lot more oppurtunities and always have better stats. Colston will never have a season as good as Wayne's 07.
If Meach steps up or they find another WR worth a damn you will see Colstons stats fall a fairly signifigant amount and it's not because Colston isn't as good as he was it is just because he won't get as many oppurtunities. |
adding Shockey will give more oppurtunities because Shockey will draw a defender off Colston. Wayne also may have had a better season last year but he was also 29 years old and Colston was 25. |

And every Saints fan that lived in Nawlins will say this. Bush was needed for the city at the time because he brought so much excitement to a city and organization that had lost everything. It may soud cheesy but hacving Mario Williams would've been great player for this team but at the time he was not the right player. I can't finish i'm heading out to see the Rome Braves play. |

| Also some more bad news. DeMario Pressley has been placed on IR. This news also sucks because we need him on the D-Line. |

Quarterback Drew Brees named Meachem first when asked which players have stood out lately.
| It's good to hear. |
