Fantasy Football Impact of Emmanuel Sanders Joining Saints

The New Orleans Saints finally got the complement to Michael Thomas they've so desperately needed for a few seasons now. They reportedly signed former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders to a two-year deal.

This is exactly the move the Saints needed to make, with Ted Ginn Jr. leaving via free agency and 2018 third-round pick Tre'Quan Smith yet to make an impact on the New Orleans offense. It's a great fit for Sanders too, as he joins a high-powered offense that already includes Thomas, tight end Jared Cook, running back Alvin Kamara and a returning Drew Brees.
