I had high hopes for Malone. I really thought he might turn into a good #3. Maybe this will be his breakout game ?

I’m going with Malone. Best of that WR bunch at this point.

Ya never know....I thought he looked ok last season, just haven't seen a lot this year, and what we have, hasn't been a good look for him.  We could sure use a big breakout Sunday!

My vote is out of hope, i hope Ross is the WR that gets the most catches besides Boyd.

Probably Erickson though if Ross cannot stay healthy and cannot earn Dalton's trust.

Thought Tate was released? He got votes, though...

I put Ross, but it is probably more of wishful thinking. Malone would be most likely to take his spot so logic would dictate Malone...and Boyd will get a LOT more attention without AJ.

Tate was brought up from the Practice Squad.

Malone has all the talent to be a very good WR. Honestly he has disappointed me a lot. Thought he would of been
much better with the chances he has been given. That is why i voted Ross in hope but think it will be Erickson who
DOES have solid hands and heart.

I would really enjoy seeing John Ross step up and make the most out of what should be increased opportunities with Green out. The young man has a plethora of talent, but it has yet to translate in any meaningful way on the field.

But I would be ok with Andy throwing 5 INT and losing this week if we can get Malone Core and Ross enough targets to get their confidence up by throwing them the ball a lot. It would help our team in the long run to finally get these guys going so they feel like they are contributing. We have had this chance over the last two years when we knew we was basically out of the playoffs but our stubborn coach wanted every win the could possible get at the cost of developing young talent on the team. If we have a chance to win the sunday then ok fight for the win but if we are getting blown out like the KC game another chance we missed to develop young guys then put the young WR in and live or die by them.

Interesting you should say that.  I was lurking on a Saints message board and I saw this post*

Based on what? His 7 receptions for for 75 Yds and 1 TD in 18 games?

Ross has the same amount of receptions, but more yds, and more TD’s in 10 less games.

Agreed about Erickson, and if they move Boyd outside and Erickson at the slot, it may in fact be him.  

Well, it's not going to be Malone, he has a hammy....

Oh man...let the Auden Tate show begin!  Ross still has time to pull his wiener before Sunday too, just to hedge our bets!

Armon Binns

John Ross.

Dude has missed 4 games (almost 5 if you include Chiefs game where he was ruled out after the 1st quarter) and still has more targets, yards, and TDs than any other WR besides Green and Boyd.

And Erickson only has 1 more reception than Ross, Ross has more than every other WR besides Green and Boyd.
