Draft note

by John Paulsen

Talent-wise, Sanders is a major upgrade over Ted Ginn and TreQuan Smith and is a good fit in the Saints' quick-hitting offense. He has played at a 78.3-catch pace over the last two seasons and should be a threat for 80 catches in New Orleans if he plays a full season.

Saints WR Michael Thomas (ankle, out) took limited practice reps all week and is out for Week 4. It looks like the Saints are being extra careful with Thomas. Perhaps they believe they can beat the Lions without him. Tre'Quan Smith, Emmanuel Sanders and Alvin Kamara get a bump with Thomas out another week.

NO WR Emmanuel Sanders - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs Chargers

Sanders was outsnapped by Tre'Quan Smith yet again (62-51) but did see five more targets than Smith against the Lions and posted season-best numbers in receptions (6) and yards (93). Sanders and Smith have become very close in the Saints offense and our fantasy rankings. But if Sanders' early touchdown pattern continues, he'll find the end zone this week.
