#2 wide receiver battle the one to watch for Saints

The New Orleans Saints wide receivers were largely inconsistent in 2018 beyond Michael Thomas. Thomas has firmly established himself as a top 5 wide receiver in the NFL, but the Saints couldn’t get much of anything out of Ted Ginn Jr. (missed part of the season due to injury), Cam Meredith (placed on IR), Keith Kirkwood (inconsistent), Austin Carr (inconsistent), Tre’Quan Smith (inconsistent), and Tommylee Lewis (lol).

The Saints declined to add any wide receivers via traditional free agency or the 2019 NFL Draft, but they did add a couple of intriguing UDFAs - the only problem is, part of the reason Carr and Kirkwood struggled with consistently in 2018 was largely due what made them go undrafted as well.
