If they keep him on the practice squad again, some other team is likely to poach him.

If pass rush is important, they need to elevate him ASAP

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

He can only be poached if he wants to be poached. I would imagine they have a plan to move him to the 53 man roster. The players we have lost recently from the practice squad had to agree to the move knowing they'd automatically be placed on the acquiring team's active roster. They knew no move up was imminent with the Saints.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

I guess. Hope he helps (he was on the couch for a reason) but I doubt it.

At least someone in the FO had the common sense to see that pass rushing (minus Carl G) is a problem & addressed it.

Saints defense is old though.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

And slow too. You forgot to mention slow. :doh:

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Watching Lalos in the preseason got me all hopeful that the Saints had another pass rusher but he must not light it up in practices.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Hopefully, he's one of the guys who can develop with good coaching because he sure looks the part. The problem is.....we don't have good coaching :wink:

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Nobody can say this regime is not always looking for answers. Cam Jordan is getting old, so we got Jason Pierre Paul to be the answer. Pete Carmichael is struggling with the offense, maybe we could bring in Ken Dorsey and Josh McDaniels to help him. Maybe if Kamara has a concussion we can call up Jahvid Best, or if our receivers keep getting arrested we can sign AB.

This being said, Pierre Paul may be able to contribute a bit as a rotational piece, but given his advanced age, lack of recent production, and borderline retirement, we should not expect much. This may be a Jimmy Graham type signing. Maybe he can teach the second rounder a move.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Defense is getting up there in age. But still have both Cameron Jordan and Demario Davis.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

We have to make some changes to the playcalling. I as a fan shouldn't feel like I know he exact play we are about to run on the majority of the plays. We are way too vanilla on offense. Pete runs the offense like he has a handful of plays on Madden. He also has no concept of moving the chains and sustaining drives. When we get into enemy territory, we constantly stall out cause he doesn't know how to call plays down there to move the sticks.

During the last game I was thinking, "why haven't I seen Payton Turner in a while?" I could google it, but thought I would ask you experts. Where the hell has he been?

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

He's been on IR designated to return soon. I believe he's been doing cardio work to help get ready.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

This could be the move to activate Pierre-Paul from the practice squad.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Pierre-Paul said he only wanted to sign with a contender. He has more confidence than some of the fans around here. :D

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

This is behavioral. Wen people do not know what to do, they generally resort to what they are familiar with.

Dennis Allen is so f***ing lost. He has a broken offense and is adding to the defense.

It makes zero sense to consume cap for that.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

This is a player I won't hold my breath on. He's turning into Marcus Davenport 2.0. Some of these former 1st rounders (Davenport, Turner, Penning) are turning into duds & aren't helping on Sundays.

Thank goodness for Carl Granderson.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

You used to say the same thing about Cesar Ruiz labeling him as a bust after his first season. He's now one of our most consistent starters.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

I have nothing against JPP, kind of like the player and yes maybe he has a few good pass rushes left in him.

That being said, I can't shake the feeling this is a "big name" signing to a minimum contract to try to draw attention away from the other tangible moves Mickey should be considering: punter/kicker replacement/tryouts, firing or bringing in other coaches to help Carmichael, stabilizing OL, etc.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

According to stats I've read he's no better than any DE on our roster at QB pressures per snap played last year.

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

Since we have very little contribution from WTFoskey and P Turner, we'll see just how much of what's left of his hand he can contribute. :bng:

Re: Report: Jason Pierre-Paul agrees to terms with Saints
 

lol, "WTFoskey" is in my top 5 Saints nicknames of all time!
