He showed flashes, man.

Throughout training camp, Payton has had solid performances and proved he can keep up with the Saints receivers. Dennis Allen has consistently said young/unproven players need to stand above the rest to make this team. Being part of this group, Payton would either need to start having even better performances in camp, which is very hard for cornerbacks, or play really well in preseason. In the first game against the Arizona Cardinals, Payton stood out, recording four forced incompletions, two tackles, and allowing only one reception. With this performance, PFF gave Payton a 90.9 coverage grade, which ranked first among rookies, and a 91.7 overall grade, which ranked second among rookies.

One preseason game. And yet it wasn't enough to earn him more than the 21 defensive snaps the entire regular season including only 11 snaps over the final 15 games. It's hard to keep a spot on the 53 man roster if your only production (6 solo and 5 assisted tackles) comes on special teams. Who knows, maybe he'll look like he can contribute more in his second year. It would be great if he can.

Baldy makes a great point. This is a 1st Draft Pick O Line (Except McCoy).

Expectations SHOULD be high for their performance!

I love listening to Cam. He is a leader. And he wants to be a Saint for life. I think that’s awesome. And I know he isn’t what he used to be. But he knows that too. I hope he goes nowhere else and finishes it where it started.

I was watching highlights of Mekhi Becton last night. I'd love to see Penning become the next Becton.

Notable cuts ...

Guess we'll see if Ross was right in a few weeks.
