Re: Saints Sign TE Jesse James

First off Hill is badass. Second, he’s totally ****in awesome. And lastly, Taysom Hill’s mother is probably a hot model who had an affair with Chuck Norris. He’s Chuck Norris’ baby!!! You heard it here first! He will always have a place on the roster!! Go Taysom!!!!!!

Is it me or is Taysom Hill increasingly becoming the odd man out

I've been wondering the same thing. Don't be surprised if he spends most of his time in the running back room since he is already familiar with the TE room.

I could see him winding up min the running back room.

I wouldn't be surprised if James fails makes the cut.

There is a role for a blocking tight end on the roster. If he's healthy there is a chance he makes the roster. Doesn't Carr like the two tight end sets?

That's funny. In fact, now that you mention it, Chuck Norris favors my twin brother too. ;)

Re: Saints Sign TE Jesse James

I know he's a fan fav. But does anyone know what the cap hit/ savings would be if we let Hill go?

More importantly than being a fan favorite, I believe he's also a team favorite. I just can't envision the scenario where the Saints wouldn't want Hill on their roster. He is arguably one of the two or three top athletes on the entire roster. Even if there was no cap hit what would be the added value to the team in letting him go?

:confused:

It's a roster spot and cap space. Looking at what he brings (at that price tag) should be more than his athleticism. I'm specifically referring to what he contributes game to game as a position player. TE? Not much there... QB? Gadgetry but not much there either. Special Teams? Hell yes, but at that cost?

Just trying to see where he fits other than being a swiss army knife in our pocket, because we're currently stacked at TE and QB.

Arguably even more so than McCaffery, now with the Whiners.
