Do you Saint fans think I can go to Marques Colston yet, or should I keep him on the bench for another week. My other option is like Jabar Gaffney...I'm thin at receiver, and injuries have hit me hard early.
Hard to say, last week he couldn't have seen more than 20-25 snaps, I barely saw him out there. And Brees only looked his way once. I'm assuming he'll be a lot more involved in the offence this week now that he's got a game under his belt, but the way Brees spreads the ball around (especially that he has a new favourite target in Graham) it's hard to predict, especially with the injury. Sounds like you're stuck so its worth a gamble, haha just don't crap on me Sunday afternoon if he doesn't see many balls. I'm sure he'll have at least 3-4 catches though, and perhaps more.

And I haven't seen enough of the Curtis Painter O to answer about Clark, but as for Olsen anyway, he seems to be Newton's 2nd favourite target, and the Saints always seem to struggle against good TE's, what with their less than ideal OLB's.
