I personally don't think Dural makes it through camp w/o getting cut. He never recovered from his injury and it took away his most important asset, his speed

Dupre, Rodgers and McCarthy will make a good receiver out of this kid. I lik Dural but I see him as a Devery Henderson 2.0 with the Saints.

Not sure what this is supposed to mean...Devery Henderson 2.0 would be much better than either of these guys...

Dupree. More potential and slightly less drops


Any proof? Link to stats, etc. or is that an assumption based off your personal viewings of games? If it's the latter you don't know shite. Dupre has not only had more drops but was the cause of more incompletions from mental breakdowns, i.e. wrong routes, stopping, too soon/late, and let's not forget the way too often times he was owned by db's 5-6" shorter than he in jump balls

Not knocking Devery (one of my all time favorite LSU/Saints player). I just think Devery was more of a deep threat like Ted Ginn Jr, while Malachi should/could develop into a more complete receiver.

I think Dural is a better blocker.

Dural strictly off of WR depth for the saints is a little lower than the Packers

They both have incredible opportunities with the hand that was dealt. Rodgers/ Brees are two of the GOATs.

They need to do the most with this opportunity, is all.

Dural, the Saints only have 3-4 receivers on the roster. I think they will be see the field this fall though. Dural can be successful in that Henderson role.

Dupre

Neither will give NFL corners any trouble

If Duore can play the slot a little he may fill a need somewhere

He has a 39.5" vert and 11'03" broad jump

4.52 40

He's a pretty damn good athlete

Travin Dural without question. Will they both make it? Who knows. But, Travin has way more upside than dupre.

Too bad he didn't play like it. I still remember the Wisconsin coaches' comments before the first game last season in respect of them not being worried about him. Something to the effect of him not playing tall, and therefore his height advantage not actually being an advantage.

Pretty damning, and yet very accurate.

Dural- has a much better chance

1) the saints only have 4 Wrs under contract and didn't draft one

2) Dupre's competition is the WR from Purdue who the Packers drafted 2 rounds and 4 Packer draft picks before they took Dupre

Neither has much chance so why split hairs. They're talented but so are a lot of wrs.
