re: If Colston leaves, what will be options to replace him?

This draft should be loaded with 6'4" 225lb types. Probably won't matter because the Saints don't really draft to replace people. They seem to do it strictly by BPA, but there's gonna be some receivers with good size available in the middle and late rounds. There's a junior from South Carolina that should be coming out. He's pretty physically imposing. Not sure if he, or any of these guys, go meet the ball in the air like Colston does though. There's also the kid from UNC, his name escapes me, and several more. There are about 6 or 7 legit prospects all in 6'4" 225 area that aren't gonna go early.

Then there's Arrington. This should be the last yr he's eligible for the practice squad so, we'll have to use him or lose him. I don't think he's a replacement for what Colston does, and he has a real problem getting any separation but, if the Saints decide Devery's salary is too high for how much he's being used, we may be replacing 2 receivers, which would increase the probablity of us keeping Aarington.

The only answer is Ladarius Green.
