Not sure if serious

I don't watch as much football outside of the Saints and playoff games. It was a serious question. But since it appears I am going to get the 3rd degree for an unintended, presumably stupid question, nevermind.

My question is grounded in the poor pass protection last year. I am still skeptical that they will completely fix this issue in one off-season. Mix that in with Colston's downward trend, I am of the opinion need weapons to replace Colston in the possession receiver category or perhaps a veteran slot receiver.

With all that being said, as long as Marshall isn't a receiver that uses (or has used) pure speed to gain separation from defenders I don't see an issue with him playing at a high level at 31. I doubt he's worth the trade value, but he still might have some gas in the tank.

I view him as a faster Colston. He has the same size as Colston; Marshall is 6'4", 230lbs, Colston is 6'4", 225 lbs. Marshall has better speed and great hands.
