How do you feel about our new roster..What would you have done different?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I trust the coaches opinions. None of you are NFL coaches so what does it matter what you think?...

Not sure I'd change anything, but Humber and Quddus kinda surprised me, as well as keeping 2 FB's.

If that's how you feel then why do you come here? I'm certain that you are not a head coach so what does it matter what you think?

I'd be all for bringing in another linebacker as long as it was an upgrade. Briggs, Tatupu, or even Kawika Mitchell.

Why isn't Arnoux heading to the Practice Squad? If I could do anything, it would be that. More time to learn the defense and heal.

I was surprised that we kept 2 fullbacks and would have liked one more O-line guy on the roster for depth. But overall we have a real solid team.

Two FB's on the active roster doesn't make sense in this offense. The one released would have easily made the practice squad. I would have kept Morgan on the 53 and let him heal. The Saints have no punt returner with his skills. With the league rule on inactives, the 6th WR is not going to be active anyway.

Sproles should ok as PR..and i think Hall can play tight end ..he showed that against the Titans..we did keep Morgan he is on IR..so he safe for later..

I really think we plan to run the ball a lot more this year..Drew should not have to do it all himself like in 09...

After watching our backups Thursday I'm not impressed with de la Puenta, Queddas and Amaya. They just didn't seem to look right on the field.jmho.
Also since we have Sproles and I don't think Roby does that well at WR it looks like he's a player that won't see much time.

they did a great job but they had to overcome the nfl retirement home that was the saints defense. they have more to do. way to much in one year. safety, olb and the dt still need to be addressed next year.

ok LOT once again i can not leave that out. it is a tradition with me
