Emmanuel Sanders

Emmanuel Sanders was a highly sought after target in this year’s free agency. The Saints were the lucky team who got Sanders. After he burned them last year, this year he will be playing with the team instead of against them.

Sanders is brand new to the New Orleans Saints. He will use training camp to get acquainted with his new teammates and quarterback. He will then turn around and use the preseason to prove that he is who they brought him in to be.

He will be playing behind Michael Thomas which should open up opportunities that he didn’t’ have in San Francisco. He will also be the Saints’ deep threat giving Brees a weapon that he hasn’t had in a long time.

The preseason will serve as Sanders’ opportunity to grow all the kinks out of a new team before it comes time for the season to start. Because once it starts, there will be no room for error on either side of the ball.
