Fantasy Football Update: Marques Colston A ’Must-Start’ In Week 5 -
According to team sources, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Lance Moore has been ruled out for the team’s week 5 game against the San Diego Chargers.
Last week, wide receiver Marques Colston exploded on the field as he led the team in receiving yards. With Moore missing the game, this makes Colston almost a must-start this week. Quarterback Drew Brees is ready to break the long-standing record for consecutive games with at least one touchdown pass, and it looks all but certain that his #1 target aside from tight end Jimmy Graham is Marques Colston.
Factor in the fact that the defense can’t stop anyone, (which means the offense will probably see a lot of snaps) and the Saints are at home with a ‘must-win’ attitude, we could see a lot of points from Brees, Colston, and Graham.

Of course. But his loss, at least so far, isn't as pronounced...
