Seems like a group that will age fast. If I were New Orleans, I'd pay Meachem over Colston, and then try to replace MC through the draft.

I disagree. Marshall is really good. Period. I don't hear any over-hyping by the public, whoever they are. And the Saints talent consists on Brees and Insert any Wide Receiver Here. They were putting up points before those guys got there and will continue to do so when they're gone. Wouldn't over pay for any of them. Give Brees our WRs and they wouldnt skip a beat. Colston has Missed a bunch of games due to injury, and you'd hardly notice.

Ingram was a reach. They could have found a RB anywhere in the draft and put their first round pick to better use.
