Honestly, Willie Snead should have been included in last week's segment. Snead continued his emergence as a top option in the Saints' passing attack, racking up six catches on 11 targets for 141 yards. His 11 targets led the team in Week 5.
There's reasonable debate as to who is the top receiver in New Orleans: Brandin Cooks or Willie Snead. Here's a look at their numbers through five games.
Cooks has Snead in both receptions and targets, but Snead is leading the team with 381 reception yards and has been the big-play receiver Drew Brees loves to utilize. That's evident by Snead's team-high six 20+ yard plays. With Marques Colston dealing with a shoulder injury suffered in Week 5, Snead should continue to see a heavy dosage of targets. He's become a must-own in all leagues and will cost a pretty penny in FAAB leagues. But he's worth it.
