New Orleans wide receiver Willie Snead – Stud

TODD: Owned in fewer than 50 percent of leagues, Willie Snead is back in the good graces of the Saints passing offense after returning from injury. Thus, he must be owned. While New Orleans hadn’t been playing up to its normal production on offense for much of the year, things have looked good in recent weeks. Drew Brees has looked especially nice behind center, meaning his receivers are once again reliable targets.

With a banged-up Brandin Cooks, an inexperienced Brandon Coleman and an aging Marques Colston, Snead is perhaps the best option of the bunch moving forward. He returned from injury to gather 122 yards this past week and now faces Detroit, a poor team that is back to its losing ways after a streak of success.

No opponent likes to play the Saints in New Orleans because of how effortlessly the Saints’ offense executes in that dome. Snead will be the beneficiary.
