so you have to be an elite receiver to be a true #1? come on people. Colston must not be a #1 than, because he sure as hell isn't elite. Yea he was pretty damn good, but he wasn't elite. All those guys you listed are elite.


Exactly. To me a WR #1 is a guy who can run any WR route effectively. Colston in his prime could run short routes, WR screens, down the middle, along the sidelines, jump ball in the end zone, streaks down the field, etc. Elite players can run all these routes at a high level. Colston was never there but could at least competently run all these routes. At his age he can't, which is why we have no true #1 WR.

Having said that, I don't see who we can get at 27 that can do that.

No one said Colston wasn't a 1 in his prime. Brees helps a lot of well. Which is why a guy like Donte Moncrief in the 2nd would be great. With his physical tools, Brees could put him in the pro bowl every season. He has game changing potential
