Ian Book is probably in the next group of cuts, possibly Baun as well.

What we have, three more to get to 80 by Tuesday? And then the big cut to 53 on the 30th. Definitely don't see Book making that one. You're right in that we'll most likely keep two QB's on the 53 (Winston and Dalton) with Hill as the emergency. Book could make the practice squad since I can't see him picked up off waivers at that point. You never know though.

If Book cannot be developed, then it doesn't make sense to waste a spot on the practice squad for him. It would be smarter to drag the league cuts to find a QB3 that could be developed instead.

Agree completely. I'm thinking they're just keeping him through this next week just to rest our two keepers.

I can't see Book being with the Saints much longer. The backup TE is a better option at QB than Book and the Saints don't need four QB's.

No arguments here.

Quick observation over the last 2 pre-season games: Book seems to put his WRs in bad spot (Stinch & Vilma mentioned it in post-game) with his passes. I mean really dangerous throws (exposing players' knees), fumbling under center, or running for his life.

PS is his ceiling.

HS football coach might be his ceiling.
