According to ESPN, not a single Saint can breach the top 1/3 of defensive players in the league. The worst part is that I can't really argue otherwise..

Cam Jordan will make that list next season, no doubt about it.

I was surprised not to see Keenan Lewis. But then again, this is a list that didnt have sproles in the top 100 either

Cam Jordan is one of the top 10 DEs in the league.

very true. What a F-ing joke. The guy who owns the record for most all purpose yards in a season isn't one of the top 100 players in the NFL.

And PT.

Year after year, PT is crazy underrated.

If PT received more carries, there's no doubt about it. He just doesn't get the touches needed. He and Colston are so underrated it's sort of sickening. The sad part is that Colston actually has the stats to be listed as a top 100 player. It amazes me that Colston never gets recognized.



Roddy White (2005-present) *listed as the 19th best offensive player in the NFL according to ESPN

8725 yards
622 receptions
52 touchdowns
68.2 yards per game avg.


Marques Colston (2006-present)

7394 yards
532 receptions
58 touchdowns
72.5 yards per game avg.

Really?
The guy has only had 2 years of solid playing time and only 1 as a starter.

I'm sure there's numerous players on the list that fit that criteria.

He also has a career 1 interception, with 0 last year. He might be a great shutdown corner though, I have not actually seen him play to be honest. But I have never really heard big things about him either.

ESPN hates the Saints.

CJordan is going to become very popular, very soon in this new Defense. Big year coming.
