MacReady Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/03/20/emmanuel-sanders-signing-with-the-saints/\ Quote Drew Brees has another weapon. The NFC South now has some of the best receiving corps in the NFL. The Bucs and new quarterback Tom Brady have Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. The Saints have Michael Thomas . . . and now Emmanuel Sanders. Sanders, who ranks 64th on PFT’s list of top 100 free agents, has agreed to terms with the Saints, Ed Werder of ESPN reports. Sanders, 33, had seven catches for 157 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers’ 48-46 win over the Saints in Week 14 last season. The two-time Pro Bowler made 66 catches for 869 yards and five touchdowns in 2019 while splitting the season between Denver and San Francisco. For his 10-year career, Sanders has 601 catches for 7,893 yards and 42 touchdowns. Edited March 21, 2020 by Outpost31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Solid pick up. I know that they wanted him last year, and even though he had some ups and downs with the 49ers, much more positive than negative. Love me some Manny. Good luck in NOLA. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Nice! Biggest hole is WR 2, we all wanted Sanders last year when he was available! Even if he’s old he’s better than what we have 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Also, just saw the contract...very awesome deal. 2 years, 16 million up to 19. I thought he was going to get something comparable to Golden Tate last year, but this is much better for the Saints. Well done, New Orleans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 He should be pretty serviceable for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfrey13 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) He should have a much better year in New Orleans. Good signing if they the price is right. Just saw the contract and that is a good deal. Edited March 21, 2020 by drfrey13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he’s old he’s better than what we have I wanted him so bad last year. This signing really makes me hate the Peat contract a little less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 I was just shocked nobody had posted it yet. I was like... I even waited a full minute because I wasn't about to have a thread of mine locked. I'm basically a journalist now. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFan13 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Pretty solid pickup for the Saints imo not bad at all. I like how in the tweet Julio and Ridley didn't even get an honorable mention 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Was the ideal guy for the Packers and we're gonna end up with another deep ball specialist if we sign a WR lol. Yes, sign the deep ball guys for the guy that can't throw the deep ball anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers can't hit the deep ball anymore and Anderson isn't an underneath guy. Might as well just keep trotting out MVS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
