As for Jackson, you may be right ... I think the coaches really like his college tape. We'll see.

Absent injury to Pete or Davis, I don't think Kwon makes a lot of sense given our cap, desire to develop our younger LBs & the Saints generally only have 2 on the field.

Werner is basically a younger, faster Scott Shanle...

And I'd rather have Kwon and not need him than need him and he not be available during the season...

As you say, We'll see as Training Camp and PreSeason unfolds...

Agree about the need/have point you make JP. Still scratching my head a little on why he’s not in camp if for nothing else but depth. Maybe Kwon wants a little too much money? Just a thought.

That is high praise! Shanle was a very good player for us.

And Warner looks to be faster than Shanley. He might even be an upgrade.
