Brees' top pass catchers for the past decade have been Colston and Graham. One is gone and one is on his last legs. 

I'm fine with Dorsett but we still need a big body guy


We don't need Dorsett. Giants had OBJ, but also Roobs. Steelers had Antonio but also Bryant and Miller. We aren't going to he successful if our number one and two are two guys under 5'10" who can't ever win a jump ball or be a legitimate red zone target.

Dorsett would be fun to have I guess in theory, but he'd be a luxury pick. We still need a legit big body to replace the void left by Graham, and eventually, and soon, Colston.

Also 100% This:

You are overvaluing those big WRs we currently have. Colston is the only proven one, and he isn't much good anymore. Toon has done nothing in 3 years, and the rest are all undrafted maybe-hopefully-please players. So no, we don't have capable big body guys. In fact that is where we are clearly thirsting.


And this:
quote:

Meat, nobody is discrediting the need and advantage of the small shifty WR's, but you are failing to recognize the requirement for balance. You can't have a team made up of all small WRs. The main point of this article is how difficult it is to find the next Calvin Johsnon. Well no shite  That doesn't mean there isn't a need for a 6'2"+ WR on a team. Just as a team should never have only big WRs, it should also not have only small ones. Balance is key in order to expose all areas of the field and game


Took the words right out of my mouth.
