New Orleans Saints: Drew Brees to Josh Hill

When the Saints traded away Jimmy Graham in March, skeptics wondered which pass catcher would assume the No. 1 role in the passing game. Conventional wisdom suggests Brandin Cooks will fill the vacancy based on his pedigree as a first-round selection, but former undrafted free-agent signee Josh Hill could emerge as Brees' top target by the end of the season. The 6-5, 250-pound playmaker is an underrated athlete capable of separating from defensive backs and linebackers on vertical routes, yet he also displays the patience and route-running discipline to win on underneath routes against man or zone. This was evident in 2014, when Hill scored five touchdowns in limited action as the Saints' TE3. He could become a 60/900/10 guy with more opportunities as a third-year pro.

I know it's Bucky Brooks but hell, I like and agree with it.

you have to like that many TD's in limited action and maybe Coach Payton is just down playing Josh Hill so far to the media?

i mean nobody really knows.

i'd be pretty shocked since we traded Graham away that we would hardly use Hill. I hope Watson does his veteran type of thing but Hill is a guy who should be a steady pass catcher I think. I mean not high volume like Jimmy was most of the time but a guy who should have a few meaningful catches a game.

Drew Brees made this guy look like a star TE:



I'm not worried about TE play at all. I am a little concerned about the WR position though.
