The 2023 JeanPierre Saints Roster Depth Chart Thread

K Major · 07-24-2023, 12:09 PM

Ross Tucker wrote a story last year on the Oline tiers across the league.

I'm paraphrasing here but he basically said (ranked us as above average) that health/depth is one of the only things that is keeping the Saints from being elite.

Trevor Penning & Andrus Peat need to stay out of that medical tent in 2023.

Side note - he evaluated (before the start of 2022 season) the Eagles & Chiefs as his only elite O lines, ironically they were both in the Super Bowl in 2023

Ross Tucker is a guy who's opinion I value on all matters O-line. Him playing in the league carries a lot of weight.

He is spot on when it comes to the injuries it has the potential to derail a teams whole season.

If that doesn't light a fire under Peat's butt nothing will.

This is his last year, IMHO, with the Saints. They can't cut him due to cap considerations. Might be more palatable sometime after season end.

It might, however, light a fire for his grill/boiler so he can make his own Fried Chickenz Sammiches.

Don't shoot the messenger here but Jimmy Graham was signed as well.

I thought he retired from football years ago.

Since his catch radius is insane with his height (since you know he's not going to block), Saints have no excuse to not score near the goal line with him, Williams, AK, MT, Olave, Juwan, Foster, Taysom, everybody in the weapons arsenal.

IF he even makes the team. Didn't play in 2022.

Let's see what he has left at camp. At worst, he can mentor the young guys.

If he's toast, then cut him.

Taysom, Williams, Kamara, and Shaheed with a lot of action and motion should be ridiculous on the goal line.
