The Saints will put in many different player packages. Many of these are meant to confuse defenses and create mismatches. Colston I think is the most legitimate #1 receiver on the team, but they will go with whoever has the hot hand or creates the greatest mismatch. This is how Brees threw for over 5k yards last year and didnt have a single receiver go over 1k yards. He will spread the ball around so much that it becomes hard to defend. You can take away the #1 receiver and he will find your weak link and hit that receiver. Not sure if it's Brees that makes these receivers better, or if they are all pretty good, but there's not that much drop off from Colston to the rest.
