The protocols that unvaccinated players have to go through are cumbersome to say the least. I know of at least two players briefly threatened to quite before getting a shot ... Deandre Hopkins for one.

That'll just make our Super Bowl win next February just that much sweeter!

SP and Co must have ulcers. Lol.

I'd be surprised to see the Saints win 8 games this year.

We still have one of the best rosters in the league. There's lots of talent there.

Eh, wasn’t doing much anyways. This one won’t hurt the team much, just lost some depth that would get injured once thrown on the field anyways. Good luck in your post football life, prob

We have one of the top O and D lines in the NFL.
Arguably the best RB
Legit Linebackers
Probowl CB, SS, FS

Jameis looks the part. Taysom adds another dimension.

SO it may not be pretty. Who cares!? This team can still win any game.

In fact, Vegas currently has us at +3000 to win the Super Bowl. That the 10th best odds. As a comparison the Patriots are +3500, Steelers +4500, Vikings +5000, Falcons +8000, Carolina +9000. Favorites are KC +500 and Tampon Bay +600.

I fully expect the team to start the season playing disjointed and plenty of miscues. You don't turn over that many players and not suffer from a communication / timing standpoint.

But the core of this team is intact and stronger than ever. Health is key and then little can stop us.

Playing at home in the Dome week one could set the theme. I think the emotions in that place are going to have a huge impact. Don't forget that the Packers are going through some major drama themselves that can cause some internal turmoil.

As much as I liked having the depth of P-Rob on our roster, I'm reading the tea leaves in a much more positive way - old is making way for the young...

Adebo has had some real good reports lately in training camp; so I'm speculating that the DB room already has an idea of how it's playing out with regards to starters...

Robinson probably looked in the mirror, as well as his DOB on his driver's license, and decided the one last hurrah he wanted wasn't happening, so he tapped out...

This may be exactly what we need, a steal in the third round stepping up to be a starter right away; sure they'll be growing pains, but by season's end, it should be good...

So what you're saying is.... PRob read up on his Adebo PDF and saw the future up close and personal.

Does this clear any cap space for us?

Rougly 2M in cap space.

What's his cap savings, $2 million? Guess we can trade for Xavier?

The Fins restructured Xavien's contract.

P Rob was up and down with us. I appreciate his efforts but probably won't even remember his name in a few years. I wish him well though.
