Mid Iowa Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 There is a lot of chatter on Twitter about the Saints trading for Emmanuel Sanders. We've all spoken about our need for another receiver, so what are y'all's thoughts on this possibility? Also, any other trade needs you see, and thoughts of who could fit in? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Might as well bump up the compensation and snag CHJ from the broncos too. We need slot CB help i know it’s not realistic with the cap situation, but that’s never scared Loomis away before 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammymvpknight Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I think that the Saints need a slot WR. Emmanuel Sanders is a good slot receiver...so he makes a ton of sense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is there are probably 3-4 teams looking at Sanders as seriously as we are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Dome mentioned, several teams are looking at him too, but you know he'd look at the ones who could bring him a ring NOW, and that would be the Pats & the Saints, and the Pats already have a go-to slot guy in Edleman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how much of a say he has in the matter some players have that kind of pull, not sure Sanders is one of them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMG5 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Sanders to the Saints. It will happen. We will speak it into existence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlowe22 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I wanna see it happen. It's got to happen if at all possible. We need another receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also assume @JMG5 Is also right, please 🤣 If it helps, I will throw a box of Cubans in the ante!

Canadian Saint Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 So TE OJ Howard is available from the Bucs, what do you guys think of him? He's struggled with them and under Arians gets no playing time, but coming out I loved his skillset. If he comes cheap and the Bucs would trade him to us, would you take a flyer? If anyone can get the best of out him, I'm sure Payton can. This is in addition to say an Emmanual Sanders and not instead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone can get the best of out him, I'm sure Payton can. This is in addition to say an Emmanual Sanders and not instead of him. Well, he's got the height we like. I've never even heard of him (I don't do fantasy, so that's understandable) but he gets a lot of snaps, so he be a good blocker. The Buccs say they have no interest in shopping him (which means they are). As a 3rd year guy who's seeing fewer targets, no TD's yet this year and only 5-6 in previous years, and average receptions/target, we'd have to get him for a song. Like a 6th or 7th. But like you said, if anyone can make a TE work, it's Payton. But then again, I've always had the impression Arians got the best of his players, too. So I guess I'm indifferent.

OJ Howard was a stud receiving TE for Alabama and one of their most productive receivers at that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were to basically eat near all of the salary associated with them, I'd almost be willing to give up a 1st. It would almost cement a Super Bowl for us barring any further catastrophic injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
