Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Has any recent Ohio St QB excelled? And please don't claim Burreaux.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

No player that has scored low (Stroud had 18%) on the S2 test regardless of position or where they attended college has had any success in the NFL from what I have read. Who knows? Maybe Stroud will be the first, but that dynamic has me more in doubt than the fact he played at Ohio St, honestly.

By the way, Burrow scored a 97% according to this report.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

I'm still high on Justin Fields. If he has the time (o line needs to give him time). Has all the tools. Good decision-making, elusive, and a big arm.

Glad the Bears traded for Chase Claypool last year. Legit threat and target for the young QB.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Finally, the Saints get to play a real opponent on Sunday for pre season #1.

It's looking like Patrick M will play a full quarter.

Good. Time to see what our DE (Turner & Granderson) can do against the ELITE of the ELITE.

I'll be focusing on DE/DT & O line play.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Quick observation:

Some of these QBs (Clifford - GB) & Stroud should be in the shot gun.
1 pre season game but it may be moving too fast for them right now.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

It may have been posted elsewhere, but I heard Landon Young hurt his knee.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

It sure would be nice for Turner to have a statement game out there Sunday.

Best dance move?

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

The term stacking is all the rage at training camp this year. I hear it on every outlet everyday. I guess that's good because I hear it said about a lot of different players. Which means we have talent showing out early.

Stacking. It's the new black! :wink:

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

We ain’t gonna stack **** with a beaten up offensive line that has very little continuity. This isn’t Payton’s offense where we can just plug and play backups and still have one of the strongest offensive lines in the league. Our linebacker situation is a little more dire than most want to admit. It’s the same thing every year, a few position groups loaded with talent and one position group void of any. Safety, CB’s, TE’s and more recently WRs. This organization likes to put all their eggs in one basket.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Facts.

Outside of Mckoy & Ramz, nothing else you can’t count on in those trenches.

On paper, you may get by some of these NFC South
teams with inexperienced QBs.

But in post season? Better tighten up with QUALITY DEPTH now.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Looking forward to the Chargers/Saints joint practices next week.

Bosa, Hebert, Wiliams, Latt, DCarr etc.

Good matchups.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Is he an upgrade (21/102 - 4.9 ypc in 22) over Merriweather ?

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

He's excellent competition for the roster whether he makes it or not. If AK gets banged up and Miller has a rough rookie season we might need to bring in several more.jk :wink:

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Peat likes to stack them sammiches!

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

FYI,

The Saints are back to the grind this afternoon (4 pm).

Closed practice.

After that, off to the west coast & practice/game with the Bolts @ SoFi stadium this upcoming Sunday.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Per Katherine Terrell, Taysom Hill strained his oblique @ practice. Ruiz left with a shoulder injury.

Dennis Allen said it doesn't look to be serious at all for either.

Ice up, it's a grind.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

I really like Taysom but I’m convinced he can’t stay healthy through a season if he got 20 touches a game.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Taysom just isn't built to step out of bounds I don't think lol

Just unfortunate that it also includes injuries when you play like that, because it's damn exciting to watch.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

IMO Bryan needs to show more at these joint practices, and subsequent preseason games to secure a roster spot.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Underhill with notes from yesterday's indoor practice.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Not having Lattimore for much of last season was a huge hit. This defense is automatically several notches better with him on the field and healthy.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Yup!

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Following up on the rookie AT Perry at practice ...

Appears to be making plays against Lattimore. That is hard to do folks.

Talk about confidence building. The kid is definitely making the most out of his reps & trying to seperate himself from others for the #4 spot.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

On his way to WR3, dare we say?

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

In front of Shaheed? Perhaps.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Hmm ...

But tell me this though. Didn't the great Marques Colston go from #6 on the depth chart to #2 as a rookie?
That year (06) was crowded at WR.


Saints legend.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Heard that Demario returned to practice yesterday. The calf must have been something minor as was indicated earlier. I'm really liking how they are being very deliberate with any soft tissue issue. Smacks of Dr. Rhea all they way.

Re: 2023 New Orleans Saints: Training Camp
 

Great news! Both Kendre Miller and Kirk Merritt are back at practice in pads.
