HELP WANTED: New Orleans Saints’ Receiver Room DESPERATELY Needs Veteran Leadership
The New Orleans Saints eye potential free agent veteran wide receiver which may top the priority list, with Keenan Allen and Amari Cooper as possibilities to provide leadership for the young receiving corps. Offensive line options worth exploring after missing out on Mekhi Becton, with Tevin Jenkins and Dalton Risner considered to strengthen the trenches.
Salary cap management takes center stage as recent moves involving Chase Young and Juwan Johnson aim for strategic savings.

Was up!!
Who dat!
Keenan Allen would be nice Ross ⚜️⚜️⚜️
Who is Velus jones Jr
Juwan Johnson contract is bad for the saints but i guess Kellen Moore wanted him.
I like Coop depending on the price
Amari cooper
A screw up missing the off lineman
Good stuff Ross as always . Thanks for all you do keeping us informed. Greetings from Knoxville Tennessee
Elijah Moore. I don’t think the Saints need any more veteran “leaders” at any position. Allen is washed up. Draft Savion Williams or his TCU teammate from Louisiana Jack Bech in the 3rd
Receivers rather go elsewhere who wants to play with Carr the receiver killer
I would sign Coop for 8 mil a yr with incentives that would increase to 10 mil. Plus, Moore coached Coop and Coop played with Carr a couple yrs.
Thanks Ross
Most of these younger guys workout in the off season with veteran WR's and they have coaches, it's not necessary for them to have a veteran WR. We've made this mistake before and it sometimes gets us in trouble because these veteran guys cost more and are on the downside of their careers. And it also means less playing time and on the field development for the young WR's. What this WR room needs is a Big Physical WR, because Olave and Shaheed aren't those types of players. I feel like WR Savion Williams TCU 6'4" 222 4.48/40 is the guy this team needs that can be gotten in the 2nd Round. He brings Size, Physicality and explosiveness. He runs like a RB and has lined up at RB before. They say he has inconsistent hands, but so did Devery Henderson in the beginning of his career but became the most lethal consistent deep weapon for Drew Brees. Williams has more speed than his 40 suggest. I still would like to see them pick up more picks by moving down in the first round to about 18 and drafting S Nick Emannwori S. Carolina 6'4" 230 4.38/40. Tyrann has one year left on his deal. Emannwori is a Unique player and is similar to Derwin James who D coordinator Brandon Staley coached in San Diego!!
I don’t like to fit with Keenan Allen. I think the guy lost a step and I don’t think the wide receiver room needs a mentor. They need another attacker. And take Rashi Shahid off special teams and get another guy to play special teams. Keep that man healthy. Also, if I could trade Chris Olave for a 2nd round pick, I would.
Might actually get a 3 and a 2nd
Iam sorry but kupp is better off not here , we dont need to spent money on old players that cant make it on the field..
Just get Amari cooper
Teven Jenkins wouldn’t be a bad option since we missed out on Becton. Need a LG
Jenkins just needs to stay healthy
