He's the best route runner I've seen in a Saints uniform? When he cuts, its a thing of beauty. What say you?

Maybe...Thomas runs perfect routes as well. Wish we had signed Jarvis to a multi year contract. With their route running, and a lot of speed, Yes offense can do some awesome things once they get in sync

Him and Thomas is a great combo of great hands and route running. I liked what I saw in Olave as well. Think we are in to surprise a lot of people this year.

Ummm... Michael Thomas much?

But to your overall point of Thomas, Landry, and Olave? What a trio.

Eric Martin was a great route runner back in the day. He didn't have the afterburners but he was ALWAYS open.

Would also like that, but Olave should grow into an excellent WR2 with maybe WR1 potential

As mentioned earlier, Colston and Eric Martin were excellent route runners.

I'd also like to mention Danny Abramowicz and Lance Moore. Both of those guys were marginally talented but always open. And Moore was perfect on that 2 yard flat route like you saw in the Super Bowl. He'd get you the first down every time you tried it.

96 percent of his receptions were the exact same slant route run to perfection.

eh, considering his age, nagging injuries and less than stellar numbers in Cleveland.
I can’t blame the Saints for that tbh.

Juice finally 100% healthy now though, and I expect him to have a huge year with the Saints and earn himself a big multi-year deal with somebody next year

I was pretty happy with Olave's route running and MT runs nearly perfect routes. I think it's probably a stretch to say Jarvis is the best ever at that on the saints but he is very very good.

I would say that it is no stretch to say this is the best 3 route runners we've had on the team at one time and I would think Olave will only get better working with Landry and Thomas.

Michael Thomas is the best route runner and it's not really debatable.

E could take a hit. I met him one time a long time ago, and asked about the move from TB to WR at LSU... He said.. I wanted to play.. (Dalton Hilliard and Gary James) 1000 yard season... 1 catch over 35 yards....
