Tyler Johnson was built for this offense
so he released the ball on roughly 39yard line and ted gin caught it at the 26 so thats a 35 yard pass and he kinda line drived it, wasnt a high throw ball. He still has enough arm to throw 40-45yard air passes but he needs prefect conditions(pocket and and good step up)Just wondering what evidence from this past season has shown you the Saints can be a Vertical, deep passing team next year with Drew at Quarterback?
There was only One charted completion of a pass travelling at least 30 air yards with Drew at Quarterback last season and that was Week 12 against the Panthers, on sort of a broken play.
This isn't a bash on Drew post, Drew can still do a lot of great things at Quarterback but the long ball just simply isn't one of them anymore. He can still kill a Defense with efficiency, timing and accuracy within 20 yards and dissecting what a Defense is doing pre-snap. (that's why a lot of people are calling for the receiver corps. to be overhauled with receivers that fit West Coast principles)
I really don't see how undersized, lanky speedster Receivers fit the Offense anymore if Drew is the starter next season, those are usually not the type of guys that go over the middle, and fight for for jump balls. IMO the perfect type of Rookie receiver to add for next season would fit the mold of an 'AJ Brown', or 'DK Metcalf' type.
Also Ginn is a Free agent, and he will likely not be brought back IMO. I think the Saints already have a young, speedster who can fit that role on the Offense next season; and that is Deonte Harris; and I only think they need One of those proto-types.
