Like the Doniel Gambrell, OL, Notre Dame of Ohio signing...

Ashaad Mabry looks has the physical tool to be a good third NT for us...

Really wish we could have gotten Albany TE Brian Parker who signed with the San Diego SuperChargers...

Ole Miss FS, former All American, signed with the Titans...

Spanish Fort's Reese Dismukes signed with the Steelers...

he'll compete with another Center in B.J. Finney...

Where will La'el geaux?

Would like to have added him and got him bulked up...

Sean Hickey, OL, Syracuse

could be the steal of UDFA. OT to OG all the way

Re: 2015 UDFA Signings
 
Hickey will probably spend the year on the practice squad to beef up his lower body and learning to anchor...

He's built more like a tight end with superb upper body strength...

jeanpierre 05-02-2015 10:48 PM

Re: 2015 UDFA Signings
 
He's got some major, major baggage...

But Michael Dyer is still out there...

The past few seasons we were overboard with WR's, some way overpaid, and it showed. The drops were crazy. I think Payton is taking a page from Belichick's book - protect Brees and if WR's go down, their are always free agents bouncing around. Biggest difference in our team from 2009/2011 to 2012, 2013 and 2014 was very poor protection of Brees. Last year he was on the run and pitching the ball wildly... all while we had a stable of overpaid WR"s who under-performed at every turn - Jimmy Graham included.

Granted, I would have LOVED to keep Stills!!!

Re: 2015 UDFA Signings
 
Biggest problem I have with regard to the Saints and WRs is we always too many and they can't get enough touches to develop and show what they have...

Colston might never have made this team now if the roster wasn't barren when he got here...

That said, the Bengals signed a guy I'd like to have gotten a look at in Jake Kumerow WR Wisconsin-Whitewater or Broncos signee Jordan Taylor out of Rice...
