The wide receiver situation for the New Orleans Saints is in a very odd spot at the moment. With Michael Thomas eating up the vast majority of the targets last year and the new addition of Emmanuel Sanders, it’s hard to imagine the Saints have enough targets to go around. After signing Bennie Fowler, the Saints’ wide receiving corps has only become more crowded.
Fowler has the potential to usurp Tre’Quan Smith’s No. 3 spot in the receiver rotation, but with Smith being five years younger and the two of them putting up similar stats, he may have a tall task ahead of him.
