Number Three: Brandon Coleman

Brandon Coleman was a wide receiver for the New Orleans Saints from 2014 through 2017. Coleman was acquired by the Saints after a solid collegiate career at Rutgers hauling in 94 receptions for 1,808 yards and 20 touchdowns.

His 6-foot-6 frame was very appealing to the Saints and signed him as an undrafted free agent back in 2014.

Coleman was always a very good blocker and had reliable hands. Coleman spent his entire career with the Saints hauling in 79 receptions for 1,099 yards and eight touchdowns in his career.

Coleman impacted the New Orleans Saints in more ways than the stat sheet shows. 51 of his 79 receptions were for first downs as he was always good about knowing where the marker was. He always held the football tight as well, fumbling only twice in his career.

Coleman was highly productive for his snap count percentage during his time with the team.
