Troupe to visit Saints

dwiley21 · 03-03-2008, 09:25 AM

a real qb would help him develop. He could turn into a real gem with the talent around him on this team.

Anybody hear anything more on this guy?

I think the Saints have a big play TE on the roster already in Billy Miller and he is cheaper. Miller could see a 600+ yard 70 catch season, if he was the full time starter IMO.

I also think Billy Miller is a gem but I think adding Troupe is a nice addition. Seems like Eric Johnson is a little injury prone and lacks toughness. Seems like Eric Johnson is suceptible to many unnecessary big hits.

Has Billy Miller been resigned?

Keep bringing in the SEC players is more like it. Haha.

The whole knock on Johnson before we got him was that he is injury prone. He's lived up to the billing, and miller has done fine when he's been in there. I just don't understand why he didn't get even more playing time. But then, I'm still trying to figure out how Simoneau gets any playing time and why we even resigned him. He belongs in the show Lost.
