Saints WR Brandin Cooks led all Saints WRs in snaps in Week 2.

Fantasy Impact: 

Brandin Cooks had 14 more snaps than Marques Colston who wasn't targeted in the game. Cooks had 55 to Colston's 41. It wasn't a great day for Saint WRs though as non had more than three catches. Robert Meachem led the way with 37 yards. Cooks played the most but had just 17 yards. He did have two rushes for 31 yards. As long as Jimmy Graham remains a target, Saint WRs will have a lot of up and down weeks.

In the running game, Pierre Thomas led the way with 26 snaps to Mark Ingram's 20. Ingram had another big day with 11 rushes for 83 yards and a TD. Both backs had three catches.

The following are snap counts for the Saints RBs and WRs for Week 1 vs. Atlanta:
Running back: Pierre Thomas 34, Mark Ingram 20, Travaris Cadet 12, Khiry Robinson 12
Receiver: Marques Colston 64, Brandin Cooks 52, Joe Morgan 49, Robert Meachem 19

Fantasy Impact: 

A couple of notes here: Thomas led all backs with 34. So much for being the Saints RB3. It looks like Thomas will have a big role with the offense but so will Ingram. Ingram had 14 touches while Thomas had 13, six of which were receptions. Robinson also had a TD in the game on six rushes. The other note is rookie WR Brandon Cooks who had 7 catches for 77 yards and a TD and even rushed one for 18 yards. Morgan played on 49 snaps but didn't record a catch.

New Orleans Saints fans voted RB Mark Ingram as the team’s offensive MVP of the preseason in a poll on the team’s website this week.

Ingram received 50 percent of the 1,364 votes. Following Ingram, TE Jimmy Graham (10%) and WR Joe Morgan (9%) rounded out the top three.

Fantasy Impact: 

Ingram finished the preseason with a team-best 156 rushing yards on 22 carries (7.1 average) and a 22-yard touchdown. The fourth-year running back also caught two balls for 27 yards (13.5 yards per catch) and a 23-yard touchdown. While the award doesn't mean a whole lot, it is perhaps an indication that the Saints plan to stick with Ingram a bit. However Khiry Robinson and Pierre Thomas will likely figure in the offense as well. We've heard a lot about Ingram's pass catching ability and Thomas listed as third on the depth chart is interesting, however we still have Thomas a few notches ahead of Ingram on our Week 1 rankings.

Saints RB Mark Ingram stands to benefit from Darren Sproles' absence.

Ever since he was drafted to a roster that also boasted premier passing-down backs such as Sproles and Pierre Thomas, Ingram has been marginalized to obvious run situations. That usage pattern has allowed defenses to key on him as an obvious candidate to touch the ball whenever he's on the field.

Now that there's some overlap in skill sets among Ingram, Thomas and hard-charging tackle-breaker Khiry Robinson, Sean Payton can tie defenses in knots with less predictable personnel packages.

In addition to being earmarked for the primary early-down role, Ingram expects to be a bigger factor in a pick-your-poison passing attack.

Fantasy Impact: 

Ingram is looking like a possible later round steal. If you've yet to have your draft, you may have to reach a round or two higher to get him as the news continues to be positive.
