Instant Fantasy Analysis - WR Tre'Quan Smith, Saints

[The Football Guru 211]

Smith dramatically improved his stock at the NFL Combine by running a 4.49 and exploing for a 130-inch broad juimp after leading UCF in receiving in 2017. The 6-2, 203-pounder has very long arms (33 3/8 inches) for a receiver and a good vertical jump (37.5 inches), which makes him yet another weapon in New Orleans' wide receiving corps. Unfortunately, it's hard to imagine him bypassing Michael Thomas, Ted Ginn or Cameron Meredith on the depth chart anytime soon, making him worth avoiding for redraft fantasy purposes. He is also not worth anything more than a third-round pick in rookie drafts.

I am not really sure I understand what the Saints were doing here. Given their needs and the fact they didnt have a 2nd or 1st next year spending a 3rd on a likely 4th WR seems less than helpful.
