When the Saints failed to sign Greg Jennings this offseason, the opportunity to not only make the roster as a receiver but contribute in a meaningful way was open to a lot of “potential” receivers. Brandon Coleman was certainly no exception. You’ll remember Coleman as the guy that was widely rated as the best undrafted player in the 2014 draft. When the Saints were able to sign him, most local fans immediately placed him as destined for a 40 catch plus season with a significant role in the offense. It obviously didn’t work out that way, but Coleman’s 6’6″ frame was an attribute that always gave hope that he could turn into something special.
