In a continuing series, the Times-Picayune previews the wide receiver position. Arguably this is the deepest position for the Saints, and with triggerman Drew Brees at the helm, one of the best in football in the prime of his career, we could see a record-setting season. Of interest is the potential emergence of Robert Meachem and Adrian Arrington. If both of these receivers come into their own the Saints could have a legitimate claim to the best receiving corps in the NFL.
