Phil Simms 11 127 Posted October 7, 2015 This guy is gaining in snap count and targets, now playing the second most WR snaps for New Orleans barely over Colston and behind Cooks. The guy is 5-11 but a good route runner. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/willie-snead-climbs-saints-depth-153931866.html Anybody giving him a look? I picked him up already.

General Gannicus 12 Posted October 7, 2015 With the mess at wr in New Orleans Willie has been better than all of them and may lead them in receiving this year.. Cooks getting the #1 wr treatment has shown his inability to beat top corners so Willie is open more often vs the 2's and 3's.. None of them are great options right now with brees and his shoulder issues, but having Willie is just as good as any of them so maybe he keeps it up and as drew gets his arm back Willie gets even more work as the year plays out.

Squintz82 45 Posted October 7, 2015 Starting him this week with a bye mess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gipaldo 8 Posted October 7, 2015 Picked him up in one league, certainly think he has potential moving forward. Getting more snaps than Coleman and proving himself to Brees Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HF21 3 Posted October 7, 2015 Starting him vs philly due to bye weeks and injuries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
We Tigers 71 Posted October 7, 2015 He appears to be what we all thought Coleman was gonna be after the preseason. Added and possibly starting him this week depending on how my walking injury ward shakes out by Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo312 41 Posted October 7, 2015 I'm extatic I snared him off ww for 12 team ppr league. The efficient kid already has 16 catches on 22 targets (10.6 YPT). Caught all 5 passes this week & 5-7 in week 3. He gets open more than Cooks/Coleman and Brees now trusts him. He's got good pedigree as his ol man was his college coach and the dude can run routes.

phins1921 10 Posted October 7, 2015 I haven't seen him play but heard he had a terrific preseason and have carried over into the season. Do you think he's worth an add specially with the upcoming buys for a roster spot. Or is someone more establish like Eddie Royal why thing as a little bit better I better sign then I need. Just thought I ask thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bills04 45 Posted October 7, 2015 I got Hankerson and Hurns off the WW. I had Snead as my #3 grab, but I didn't get that low in my list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just thought I ask thanks.I snagged Snead for my ppr league. -but they are close re: standard scoring ss well Royal's bye is wk 7, Snead's is wk 11With Jeffery returning, Royal's targets should drop (he had 10 last week. He faces a tasty matchup w/ KC, then DET. Snead's production is on the upswing (acting as a #2 WR). Upcoming he faces PHI, ATL, IND, NYG. It's a touch call in standard as Cutler looks for ER in the red ,... but I'd give the nod to Snead here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,311 Posted October 8, 2015 Looks like a potential PPR star to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Neil 63 Posted October 8, 2015 Saints fan here. Snead is the real deal. Since training camp he's beat out Seantavius Jones, Nick Toon, and now Brandon Coleman. Not saying that those guys are top notch but it ain't easy to start from the very bottom of the depth chart and work your way up. He has gotten better every game since preseason 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,311 Posted October 8, 2015 I watched the Saints game last weekend and he passed the eye test imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TUM301 10 Posted October 15, 2015 I think 7/80-90 and a score a quite reachable for this kid tonite against ATL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 47 Posted October 15, 2015 I feel the need....The need for SNEAD! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gipaldo 8 Posted October 15, 2015 Would anyone start him over J. Matthews this week? I know I can't, but throwing around the idea of sitting A Brown Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 47 Posted October 15, 2015 Just when you sit Brown.... He will rack 3 with Vick. Breeze will be throwing a lot tonight to keep up.... He will be looking for Snead often. I see Matthews and Snead as a coin toss but Snead is hot. Cannot sit Brown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lamb of God 14 Posted October 15, 2015 Gore or Snead in flex 1pt ppr. I really want lean Snead. Colton out, they'll b chasing points prob, getting a ton of looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TUM301 10 Posted October 15, 2015 Would anyone start him over J. Matthews this week? I know I can't, but throwing around the idea of sitting A Brown Id play Snead over Mathews but not Brown. Mathews looks like something is wrong, the drops the new system, not sure. Brown needs a couple catches or one long recp. to get going this final Vick week. So I think it comes down to, who`s more liokely to get on track Mathews or Brown ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted October 15, 2015 Yea I would roll with Snead over Matthews also , but no way would I play him over Brown . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 47 Posted October 15, 2015 Gore or Snead in flex 1pt ppr. I really want lean Snead. Colton out, they'll b chasing points prob, getting a ton of looks. Don't think I could do Snead over Gore. Gore will have more scoring chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
