Saints be releasing Colston and poo

Would like for him to mentor Funchess on playing the big slot WR that I think Devin is best suited for and the role that Colston helped pioneer, but I don't really want to use a roster spot or playing time on him so whatever. I'm cool if we get him for cheap or if we show no interest at all.

No more Saint's rejects!  Harper was tolerable but Colston is spent.  Never really thought he was all that anyway.

Guy has averaged 70 catches, 7 TDs, and just under 1,000 yards a year during his 10-year career. Even adjusting for some stat inflation from playing in that NO offense there's no arguing that he's been a quality receiver.

Not saying that I want to see him in Carolina (though I do think he'd be steps above the Legedu/Louis Murphy-type signings) since KB, Funch, and Ginn/Brown are a very solid group, but Colston probably has a couple of decent years left as a possession guy.

I wouldn't mind him as the Cotchery replacement, and a rookie to supplant Bersin. The man is 6'4" 230 lbs, I'd imagine a perfect tutor / vet presence for Funchess/KB. 

We'd have red zone threats across the board, big, can run block, can make contested catches, if the price is reasonable no reason not to. I like our receivers but we still need a dependable possession receiver, not to mention depth in the receiver size department. Behind KB/Funch we are pretty small at receiver, unless your'e counting Bersin who was rarely active.

    • Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.     
    • This post was an error. Oops and sorry for the errors in the previous one. Too slow to edit.   We’ll see what they do.  
    • I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
