Was looking for the perfect gif response for this but it hasn’t been made yet.

+1 he looks very promising.

I'd still argue we need more depth at CB. Latty has missed games over the course of his career + a possible suspension & I have no idea which version of Crawley we'll see in 2021. Even before the PRob retirement, coach SP was calling CB a must. Not to mention Prince A looking like a guy who has bounced around teams the last couple of seasons. I would have given Dre' Kirkpatrick a shot before signing Amukamura.

I think we'll add another vet CB after final cuts have been made across the league.

I know it’s just one preseason game, and I know Kamara was not playing...well, you see where i’m going. Ravens have a good D and they were stuffing most runs. (Fortunately the saints were too!). But with developing talent at WR and TE, I expected a better performance out of the backfield. Like I said, it’s early, but time is running short.

Re: Saints make 5 moves today
 

As for Lattimore and any possible suspension, I believe it is based upon if and/or when there is a legal hearing. According to a legal analyst on NFL Radio, can't remember who, the manner in which the league is now handling player discipline depends upon whether or not it is a criminal issue. He gave an example of a player who's preliminary hearing is not scheduled until next February and how the league will not rule on any discipline until then. Lattimore could fall under that category. I've searched but have yet to find anything on any hearing to date.

Don't forget we didn't have our two best offensive linemen in the game at all and the other three all in for the first series. None of them were in the game by the time Winston took his first snap from center. I don't think we can get anything of value at evaluating the running game until the entire line is in place.

True. Thanks for the hope. I also liked the way Junior planted his foot and cut upfield for big runs. He’s gonna make the team I’m pretty sure.

Re: Saints make 5 moves today
 

Just curious, Do you know if there has been a CBA change this year or
something like that which would include that provision ? Seems I remember that most of that was up to commissioner discretion. I may be wrong

Re: Saints make 5 moves today
 

He said it was simply the direction the league office was moving. He said it insures they have as much information (via criminal investigation) as possible to determine what, if any, league discipline is required.

In the past there has been no rhyme or reason to disciplining players. In these cases the player is assumed innocent unless "proven" guilty. DUI's, speeding tickets, failing drug tests, etc. are more clear cut for immediate "sentencing".

All that said, there's nothing in writing as a new policy so there is no guarantee.
