New Orleans Saints: 5 Training Camp Battles to Watch

The New Orleans Saints have finished their off-season programs. They, like the rest of the NFL, have now entered into the waiting period where no team activities are taking place.

While Saints fans now wait for training camp to open up in July; and while the Saints players and organizational staff themselves are all heading off to their month-long vacations in the tropical isles and other incredible breath-taking destinations, all eyes will be on the “battles” for several positions on the Saints roster — to determine several of the starters at a number of those spots.

Very Interesting; Williams & Breaux will bring the speed! Should have very little problem running with receivers

I have a feeling Lasco will be our rookie we stash on IR this year so that may allow us to keep Cadet AND Murphy.

Re: New Orleans Saints: 5 Training Camp Battles to Watch

It's sad to see how illiterate our people have become. It's a disgrace to our teachers, schools and educational system as a whole. Gone are the days of teaching, replaced only by indoctrination. Most sports articles these days are almost unreadable not to mention understandable with the gibberish that comes from some of these writers who are so incompetent at their jobs, they shouldn't even be called writers.

I posted another thread about Ryker. Another hidden gem?

Change of scheme and a new coach will make a ton of difference on the line.

We already have a stud in Armstead, a healthy Unger & solid/serviceable Streif.

With the Saints track record at the RB history, Lasco could be starting by week 15 due to another players injury.

But at the end of the day, I think he will push Murphy on special teams.

Competition is welcomed.

I don't think this one is a big deal. Essentially because of spread offenses, the top 3 CBs and safeties are all starters anyway.

The big deal in the secondary, as always, is will everyone stay healthy enough to play an entire season... Let's not forget that neither of these two (or Swann for that matter) was able to finish last season.
