Sean Payton has constructed a team that is sneaky similar to the 2010 New Orleans Saints. In this video we are going to break down the similarities between the current Denver Bronco lineup and the Drew Brees lead 2010 New Orleans Saints lineup.
Marques Colston was a big physical receiver who created mismatches against smaller defensive backs. Courtland Sutton and Tim Patrick will do this exact thing.
Lance Moore was a reliable slot receiver who was a great route runner. Payton used him in short timing routes, Josh Reynolds, Michael Bandy, and Jalen Virgil fit perfectly in this role.
Devery Henderson was blazingly fast and took the top off the defense constantly. No player maps better to this comp than Marvin Mims who is even faster and more proven than Devery Henderson was.
The ability to make use of all of these different types of receivers is completely dependent on a fast thinking and processing quarterback. A quarterback who doesn't rely on arm talent to rip the ball into tight windows, but instead knows who is going to be open by reading a defense before the play even begins. No one better fits this mold than Bo Nix who I believe will be our Drew Brees.
Let me know which WR you are most excited about watching this season and how do you think Troy Franklin plays into all of this? I haven't watched enough Franklin film to know which receiver archetype he fits the most so let me know which role you see him playing!
