Nick Toon WR NO. He and Kenny Stills are both fighting for the WR3 spot in New Orleans behind MarquesColston and Lance Moore. Toon looks as if he has an extra year of experience over the rookie Stills but in fact his first year in the NFL was on the IR list. Still he should have learned more about the speed of the game and the routes expected of him this year. Both Colston and Moore have a history of missing games during the past few seasons soToon could easily see some significant playing time and anyone who has Drew Brees throwing to him is worth a look. Make him your late round sleeper.
