Final 53

I think Pittman will make the team, easily. He's obviously our long-term solution as a backup.

I don't know about Ninkovich making the squad, isn't he still hurt? If he is, who's the other option for backup DE?

I am really pulling for that Lance Moore guy. I only saw him in limited action in the Bills game, but from what little I saw, he looks like he could be a nice addition.

I was thinking Fincher would make it, if the keep 7 LBs.

Budsdrinker · 08-21-2007, 03:35 PM

What do you think are the chances of Baker clearing waivers and being placed on the PS? Or do you think he's worth the spot?

Bobaganoosh · 08-22-2007, 02:25 PM

I dont think there is a chance that we keep Pettiti. The Saints will only keep 9 O-lineman and he is the odd man out. Troy Evans WILL make the team. Jamie Martin is an absolute LOCK to make the team...sorry guys. No chance Pittman would clear waivers so dont even think about him for the practice squad. There is absolutely zero interest in Aaron Stecker as far as trade value goes. Why would anyone give up anything for him? Goodwin is also a lock to make it. David Jones is on the bubble. Bellamy makes it because we dont have a 4th safety worth making the team.

We traded up for Pittman, he sticks, but needs to pick up the blitz. Stecker's still listed as #1 KR on Saints website?? Hoping for Dudley to back up Carney. Pierre Thomas could show something in KR, but probably PS. I wouldn't be surprised to see them pick up a safety or CB after the cuts.

I pray to God that we keep Rob Ninkovich.

People, be patient with this man, he'll be good.

Even as like an interim kind of linebacker or hybrid player, he's got a nasty streak and he really fires up a defense. Watch.

We need a way to keep P.Thomas. Looks like a Bush Back-up and is excellent on KR's

Pierre Thomas, that's my boy!!!!!!! Rushing like this tonight and very good on special teams. Man, I hope he makes this team. He won't last 10 minutes if we cut him or try to place him on the practice squad.

Totally agree. I have no idea where he came from, I don't care who we traded up for, just keep him.

Illinois. And very productive there too in a competitive Big 10.

Stecker, Branch, and Dudley are probably the odd guys out in the RB/FB group.
