NEED

The New Orleans Saints are running TreQuan Smith and Ted Ginn, Jr. as their No. 2 wide receivers. Compared to some other teams that are Super Bowl contenders, those are very subpar receiver backing up Michael Thomas.

Imagine what Michael Thomas could do if opposing defenses had to worry about someone like Antonio Brown on the other side of the ball from Thomas. The two of them would spread out the secondary so thin that Drew Brees would have miles of holes to throw the ball.

Imagine Michael Thomas and Antonio Brown on the same offense 😳. https://t.co/TL6dvhZCHu

I feel like we have been talking about the need of another wide receiver on the New Orleans Saints for a while now. Most fans thought the answer would be Dez Bryant, but the need of the team did not change. Antonio Brown will make just an impact.

The combination of Brown and Thomas would easily rank in the top five receiver duos in the league, then add in a Hall of Fame quarterback and a top-five defense and you have a Super Bowl team.
