re: WRs are amongst the most overrated positions in football (it's the system)

It's ridiculous how misplaced the blame is because people aren't actually watching the game as a whole. Sacks are down so immediately it's assumed itvs the pass rushers' fault. WR reception numbers are low so it's assumed they can't get separation. There are many factors at play. Look at it as a whole.

same thing happened with the pats last year. they had to replace mangold and brady had zero time and zero experienced receivers. the line gelled. brady had time. super bowl.

love our picks this year. the saints have been infrastructure (OL, DL) weak because of those first payton drafts where we went skill position every draft pick.

it's good to get the backbone there, and let one of the most accurate QBs in history find time to find someone.
