Finally not mad at Drew Brees anymore

Well, Cook took time to come around. Kamara wasn't nearly as effective or explosive as a receiver this year.

But if you entered the season thinking Cook, Kamara, CGM, Hill and hoping Smith might breakout, there were some weapons in theory. Another was definitely needed.

Emmanuel Butler must have really fizzled out because his style was more of the option needed rather than the pure vertical speedster yet he stayed on the PS and even Humphrey got ahead of him.

Take this for what it is

My cousin works around the facility and he said the Saints and Sean Payton are very high on Emmanuel Butler.

He said that Butler was just Raw coming out of a small school college and the Saints/Sean didnt want to just throw him in the fire. They wanted to groom him on the PS this year so he could be prepared for next year.

He also said that Butler was making huge strides all year, so it wasnt about Humphrey being better then Butler it was all based on strategy

I will say my cousin has never steered me the wrong way yet. So I have no reason not to believe this was true.

Also the Saints releasing lil Jordan earlier this year instead of Butler, pretty much portrays what he is saying

I really have high Hopes for the kid, and think that he may shock a lot of people next year
