New Orleans Saints Fantasy Football Analysis – Week 1

Week 1 – @ Arizona – L 19-31

QB: Brees looked pretty good behind a better line.  A little out of sync with receivers at times but should be very good as the season progresses.  Wasn’t getting every other pass knocked down at the LOS like last season.

RB: Ingram and Robinson looked good running when space was there.  Excellent receiving games for both.  They’re so good it’s hard to imagine where Spiller fits in when he returns.  He really isn’t needed at the moment.

WR: Cooks an okay game but just didn’t convert any of the big plays.  He will in the weeks to come and is still a stud.  Coleman a good game and looks good enough to at least get as many targets as Colston, if not more.  Colston looked rough in this one.

TE:  Watson okay but will be a gamble every week.  Until there is some consistency, stay away.  I just don’t see a whole lot here fantasy-wise.

OL: Vastly improved from last season.  Just a night and day difference, especially in pass protection.  Tough match up in run game in this one but the talent here makes this offense really dangerous every game.

Def: Just as bad as they were early last season.  Wasn’t stopping the run.  Torched through the air.  Amazing Ryan is still the DC.  Gave up good games to virtually every position.  Start everyone against until they stop a few teams.
