If Bengals trade Green, Saints are odds-on favorites

So the scoop on Twitter on why there hasn't been a move yet for WR:

Saints brass really wants to add another playmaker at Receiver because the young guys they have (TQS, Kirkwood, Humphrey, Carr, Butler) are either injured, inexperienced, or just inconsistent. Also because Kamara, and Jared Cook are going through ankle issues right now it makes it even more pressing to add another legitimate threat in the passing game for when Drew comes back.

Told AJ Green is the preferred choice. When healthy he was a top 5 dynamic play maker at the WR position, the issue is Bengals owner and executive Mike Brown loves AJ Green and really doesn't want to trade him, unless there's an offer that just blows him away. This will drive the price up also other teams are interested as well, including the New England Patriots.

The Saints next top choice is Emmanuel Sanders from Denver, who would be a good choice in the slot. The issue there is the Chiefs have gone on a little losing streak, while the Broncos have won 2 in a row after making some changes to their Defense. The Broncos are literally 2 games back for the Division lead, and if they beat the Chiefs at home on Thursday night they will only be 1 game behind the Chiefs with a Head to head victory. (which is not out of the realm of possibility because it is a short week and Patrick Mahomes is banged up with an ankle injury that is effecting him on the field) So they are just holding onto Sanders for now while they still remain competitive in the division.

Not quite out of the picture is Davante Parker, a promising 26 year old Receiver who is one of the lone bright spots on an other wise miserable Dolphins team this season. Apparently Stephon Diggs is not in the picture, told he doesn't fit locker room wise what the Saints are looking for and after his breakout game vs. the Eagles he appears to be all smiles with Kirk Cousins ... for now.
