My guestimation

Colston 65-85 receptions(He had 60 last year, with about 15 drops)
Cooks 90-110 receptions
Hill 40-60 receptions
Watson 20-40 receptions

I'm sure that Spiller will get a lot of receptions, but I really have no clue to even guess. I think Colston and Cooks both go over 1,000 yards. The 3rd leading receiver will be Spiller or Josh Hill. Hopefully Toon can add about 40 catches...or Seantavius Jones/Brandon Coleman breaks out. We need someone to step up as the #3 WR...plus we have Joe Morgan and his 6 catches for 300+ yards. Also, Josh Morgan has been a good #4 WR before...maybe he does it again here.

If you figure Brees will throw between 600-650 passes again (barring a legitimate shift in offensive philosophy) at his now standard 70% complete rate, they will have between 420-455 catches to go around.

If Colston, Cooks, and Spiller each go for 80 and Watson and Hill go for 40 each there will be 100-135 catches left to split. With the way Brees spreads the ball you figure to have about 5-6 other guys with 5-20 catches. Assuming 6 guys average about 12 catches that's another 60, leaving 40-75 balls left. So someone from that WR group is primed to have a decent year.
