Re: 53 Man Projections
 

Who's going to handle long snap duties? The Saints have always carried a dedicated long snapper. I think Zach Woods is a lock.

Re: 53 Man Projections
 

I forgot about him. I suppose you drop Haynesworth since Ruiz can slide to C.

Re: 53 Man Projections
 

Howden now in question. Maybe offseason shoulder surgery still lingering...

Also just learned that European players do not count against the 53 so keep an eye out for Charlie Smyth to hang on in case Grupe falters.

Re: 53 Man Projections
 

Howden definitely headed to the bench.

Re: 53 Man Projections
 

I think we look thin at WR too. Cedric Wilson looks like a solid #3. Bub Means is the invisible man. I like the flashes from Tipton that I've seen. AT Perry has been really quiet too. We still don't have a true possession receiver and we need one with AT developing slowly. I'm thinking we pick someone up after cuts or go ahead and invest in a trade for a vet.

https://www.neworleanssaints.com/team/depth-chart

The Saints posted their depth chart.

One interesting thing I noticed on the depth chart is that Taysom Hill is listed only as the #4 QB and is not on the depth chart at any other position including FB, TE, WR, etc. Yet, some other players are listed in two places. I wonder if this is by accident or is the new offensive regime do not have confidence in Hill. I think Hill's best position is receiver. I don't think he is worth $10 million but I would trust him to get open and make a play more than Davante Adams or Cooper Kupps brother.

This is also ironic because the spirit of Hill's contract was he gets $25 million if he is a QB and $10 million if he is a TE. Now he is only listed at QB so if everyone else goes down he is theoretically making bank. Maybe Trevor Penning has one fan in New Orleans?

Re: 53 Man Projections
 

Time to get better at the TE position.
