Re: Fumble against Texans could hurt RB Chris Ivory

Given what Loomis did with Brees contract.... He could have 83 players on the sidelines dressed out while conforming to the Leagues 53 man limit.

Ooops! My bad! But it was for a good cause.

Cadet will take a roster spot from the 2nd fullback.

Re: Fumble against Texans could hurt RB Chris Ivory

Cadet didnt look so great and coughed up a fumble against Ten. Sort of why you dont decide who to keep based on one fumble... anyway that's an issue for the guy that wrote the article.

Its a toss up.... Depends if the front office wants redundancy behind Sproles, or a Punch through back that we already have ... Or keep both.

Pre-Season Stats
Cadet ave 3.4 YPC Rushing 8.2 YPC Receiving and had 2 fumbles losing 1.
Ivory ave 4.0 YPC Rushing 12 YPC Recieving and had 1 fumble losing the 1.

To be quite honest... I love Ivory's through your gut style, everyone else cuts and does not carry the pile as well.... That being said I always considered him QUITE fragile... Until now. Considering he just made it through 5 games with 41 carries I am starting to think his issues have cleared up.

Loomis alluded to keeping all 5. I think we keep all 5, continue to develop Cadet and Ivory and next year when they both have a SB ring their trade stock just went up.
