Another WR (1 Viewer)

[ilvdsnts]

but he may be the free agent we can afford now that he is officially free to sign.

He is NOT a free agent. They opted out of his 5th year, but the decision has to be made going into the player’s 4th year.

We have all we need to choose from.
We will keep 6 and the final 3 will be,

Emmanuel Butler
Marquez Callaway
Juwan Johnson

Lucky Jackson is faster than all of those guys.

Runs a legit 4.35-4.40

Even Calloway only runs 4.55.


Hasise Dubois catches everything.

There is always room for a wr who can catch whatever comes his way just like Lance Moore.

Think about Emmanuel Butler's drops in preseason last year that may have cost him a roster spot.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

This is Lucky Jackson with 194 yards receiving vs Florida Atlantic.




There isn't a doubt in my mind that this kid will make a team after being given a tryout.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

Lucky Jackson had 94 catches last year.

Lucky Jackson also had 16 catches for 168 yards vs Marshall





17 catches for 148 yards vs Western Michigan in this game below.







He seems like a player with Paul Richardson ability.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

Hasise Dubois was the only wr in college football with over 100 targets who did not drop a pass.

He also had 75 catches for over 1000 yards.

He even had this 10 catch 138 yard game vs Clemson playing nearly every play from the slot.

He even beat 1st rounder (16th overall) AJ Terrell deep on one play for a contested catch.

Is he on anyone's roster?
The Saints have stayed away from speed receivers.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

The last thing I will add about Hasise Dubois and Lucky Jackson is this:

Marquez Calloway and Juwaun Johnson never posted an 1000 yard season in college, but neither did Michael Thomas or Marques Colston, so take this with a grain of salt.

Emmanuel Butler did have back-to-back 1000 yard season at Northern Arizona.

Both Lucky Jackson and Hasise Dubois had over 1000 yards last year.

Nope.

He will almost certainly get a tryout, however.

Emmanuel Sanders has decent speed.

So does Trequan Smith.

Ginn also ran a 4.28.


Jackson isn't just a speed wr.

He is physical beating the jam when he breaks and gets good body-position downfield.

Two 16 catch games last year with most of it coming in the intermediate range also speaks to his ability to also be a possession receiver instead of just a deep threat.


Adding Dubois and Jackson would be like adding two more 4th rd draft picks for competition.


Im a "get the best competition you can and let the best man win" type of guy.

I really like the wrs they have already but Im all for bringing in Dubois and Jackson to see if they can beat any of the top guys out as well.

 

[NOFALCONS10]

Even in the games that Jackson played well his qb Ty Storey was under constant pressure and barely had time to set his feet but Jackson still uncovered quick enough to bail him out and compensate for the poor Oline play.

That gives me the impression that he left a ton of yards on the field just because the qb couldn't get ideal protection.

Jackson is also a impeccably superb route-runner.

I wouldn't give my hopes up. It appears that the Saints are done with WRs unless there is an injury somewhere.

 

[town123]

Is there a max number of UDFA's we can sign?

If not, bring them in. What do you have to lose?

 

[Big_L]

This is SO true. The call for another WR not named Michael Thomas hasn't lost much steam even with the Sanders signing.

It's gotten to borderline ridiculous...............I mean how many footballs are on the field at the same time? I honestly think that some fans would just totally abandon the running game altogether and just chuck it all over the field the entire game.

And then complain about the lack of commitment to running the ball in the Gameday thread.

You can always run the clock out in the 4th quarter like they did in 2009 with Mike Bell.

I don't have them up.

When they sign it's a slim chance that it will be here any way because there are so many teams but I really think that they both can compete heavily.

My prediction.......

October 2020

After we begin 5-0 with Thomas, Sanders, Cook and Kamara all getting lots of catches, TQS getting a few.....

The cry will be .....WE NEED A #4 WR!!!!!
