Part 4/11:
A key factor in the Saints' struggles is the glaring lack of talent, especially around their quarterbacks. The team’s roster is riddled with miscalculations and poor drafting choices. For instance, Chris Alave, once considered a promising young receiver, has been labeled a bust. The assessment has been validated by Derek Carr, who publicly criticized Alave, echoing sentiments of disappointment and frustration.
Other players epitomize the team’s patchwork roster:
Rasheed Shaheed, touted as perhaps the fastest player in the league, jogged a route yesterday that could have resulted in a touchdown—yet he seemingly gave up on the play.
Jawan Johnson, projected as a tight end, is actually a wide receiver out of position.
