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 you have a weapon when your RB is the second quickest in NFL history. But Bush is doing what he was supposed to do and if there were a re-draft i would take Bush over Hawk, Mario, and every other player in the draft.

Mario Williams? You would take Bush over Mario Williams?

I know that sounds good in your head when you are thinking it, but it doesn't work like that.

I think Bush was the best player for the organization and the city.

But does he help them win? Speed is all over the NFL and I've yet to see Bush emerge as a serious threat in the NFL.

The talent is not why i would take him over everyone else. 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.

2nd Round pick Tracy Porter had to be carted off the field today. It's never good when someone has to be carted off the field.

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

Marvin Mitchell has been impressing the coaches during TC, it's good to see some Tennessee boys doing good.

Robert Meachem playing well enough to be the #2 WR.

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