Quick fantasy outlook:
Marques Colston was an awesome value pick for the Saints as he was drafted in the seventh round in 2006 (Sean Payton's first draft) and immediately started. He is not fast, but is an effective route runner who uses his size well to seal off defenders. In six out of his seven seasons in the NFL, he has had over 1,000 yards receiving. The only year that he fell short of that lofty level, he had 47 catches for 760 yards and 5 TDs in only 11 games. Colston has had some problems with his knees over his career, but has only missed three games in the past four seasons. He has more targets and receptions from Drew Brees than any other Saint and the two have always had a connection. Brees called him 'Mr. Dependable, Mr. Steady, when I need a play, I can always count on him.' The two have partnered to produce 58 TD passes and should move higher on the all-time quarterback to wide receiver touchdowns list over the next few seasons. Colston's 58 TDs leads the Saints' franchise for TDs scored.
