New Orleans Saints: Top 10 NFL Draft first-round prospects
Saints potential prospect: WR, Terrace Marshall, Lousiana State University
The Saints will be in the market for a wide receiver after the departure of Emmanuel Sanders. After spending one year on the team, we are back in the same position as last year. Maybe this year Tre’Quan Smith will be the answer? Maybe not?
The Saints need to be interested in Terrace Marshall, Jr. from Louisiana State University. Marshall played with Joe Burrow in 2019 and caught 46 passes for 671 yards and 13 touchdowns with Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase on their way to a National Championship.
This year, without Burrow, Chase, or Jefferson, Marshall still put up 48 receptions for 731 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is a big playmaker at 6-foot-3, 200 pounds. There are still things that Marshall needs to work on, but all-in-all he will be a quality receiver in the NFL.
The Saints’ coachings staff will bring around his dropped passes and blocking inconsistencies, but you can’t train size, and he also has tremendous agility, vertical, and hands. The Saints should reach and get him.
