Andrew Dowell in his 3rd season might make the team. Deuce Windham is high on him.
Baun is a conundrum.
Elliss is in his 4th year and shows flashes--especially on Special Teams.
DeMarco Jackson from Appalachian State is my dark horse to make the 53 man roster.
The rookie from Notre Dame, Pryor, and the other rookie from Utah, Sewell, have a chance to make the practice squad since the Saints, in my opinion, only have two good-great LB's in Davis and Werner.

I’m thinking Baun might be trade bait for a RB.

Or a late round pick...

...or cut.

Baun is in the wrong system here. He needs to be traded to a 3-4 team who can utilize his skills. It's not his fault that he was drafted into a 4-3(4-2-5). If we trade him he will benefit from the move and so will we. It's a win/win for everybody.
