Thomas will end up better than Benjamin he won't come close to the other two


This is just stupid and baseless. He is already a better WR than Evans.

Catch %
Thomas 76% - 26th Ranked
Evans 55.5% - 118th Ranked (worse than Ted Gin)

Evans had 7 drops last season
Thomas had 2

Yards after Contact
Thomas- 474- 9th
Evans- 169- 140th

Thomas 92 rec on 121 targets
Evans 96 rec on 173 targets!

The only thing Evans is better at is getting the ball thrown to him more. He had 173 targets so I would freaking hope he would have a few more yards and TD's. Thomas did way more with his targets than Evans.

Are you stupid I'm saying the saints don't have quite as good of a wr1 as Julio, Evans, and Benjamin

Benjamin had one catch for 25 yards. This board would be in melt down mode if that was MT stats

I think he's still very good. Brees had no time to throw at all. It's not like anyone else was lighting it up.

Thomas will be a stud, the instincts, moves and skill he showed last year is for real.

Cooks has straight line speed, Thomas has everything else.

Drew needs to toss him some 50-50 balls and let him shine!
