Yes, hopefully sometime he will earn a starting spot. But I am glad we make use of him as an eligible TE and not just in goalline situations. He does far more than other backup lineman on other teams who see virtually no playing time.

You can say he is the worst Saints O-lineman, but that is kind of like being the slowest Ferrari, just because everyone else DID go to the Pro Bowl and he didn't doesn't make him bad, it just means everyone else is amazing.

A lot of so called experts/analysts like to repeat what they read some one say about our tackles. If there is one thing this team showed this off season it's that if there is a weak spot they will aggressively try to upgrade. When is the last they brought in any one with even the smallest to replace one of our OTs?

Good. I don't want a guy happy being a backup...

...we've had enough of them over the last forty plus years...
