And I want to put this in a separate post to make a point.

People CONSTANTLY say Brees and Payton are making these receivers. That's just not true.

For every Moore, there are at least 5 Adrian Arrington's.

Meachem was a first round pick and never came close to playing at Thomas' level.

Toon was a 4th rounder and wasn't even half the receiver Colston was.

Now would these guys do a little worse in most other places? Yeah. There's proof of that. But if anyone thinks Thomas would go from 90 catches a year to 50 catches elsewhere, they are vastly overstating the impact Brees and Payton have.

Yes they help, but it's mostly the talent of the receiver.

Don't get mad man.
Your defending corey Coleman who is just not a very good receiver.
He is fast ill give him that.
He refused to work on his craft and shouldn't have been picked in the first round.
Sterling shepherd is a good receiver
