The Facts: The Saints' wide receiver depth chart is so full of young players that the experienced veteran of the group, Brandin Cooks, is 22 years old. But Drew Brees is not concerned about that. "I am not worried about the inexperience, if you are just talking about years and games played," Brees said. "I feel like the time on task between all of us is pretty significant when you are talking about the practice reps and the time that we spend away from this facility together."

Diehards Line: Brees made it clear that young receivers Willie Snead, Brandon Coleman and Michael Thomas are, along with Cooks, perfectly capable of picking up the Saints’ offense and playing the way the Saints need them to play. "I think they’re quick studies; they’re all hard-working guys that are very smart, intelligent and hungry,” Brees explained. ... As PFT notes, the Saints’ passing game was good last season with Cooks and Snead as the top two wide receivers, and the addition of Thomas in the second round of the draft should help. There are questions about whether the Saints’ defense will be good enough, but Brees thinks the offense will be as good as ever.
