Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Notes: The Saints signed DE Josh Savage to their practice squad today and waived DE Willie Evans. Savage was in training camp with the Tennessee Titans this season and has also spent time with Tampa Bay, Atlanta and the Titans. The move comes on the heels of the Saints' other roster move today, which was the signing of DL Renaldo Wynn and the release of QB Tyler Palko.

DE. Height: 6'4' " Weight: 276.

The Saints signed DE Josh Savage to their practice squad today and waived DE Willie Evans. :rolleyes:

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

I think its one of those come in and "show us something" - moves. Maybe also wake up move to the DL players, get the job done or we will continue to bring in players to see if they can contribute.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Just to be clear, we signed Wynn to the active roster, right?

We waited to sign him Monday so that he would not have a guarenteed year long contract.

So does Cooper sit? Or do we dress 8 DL?

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

thats the big question.
5 TE?
then 3 QB now 2 QB?
Sean "...Changes that will show the direction we are headed"
got me. I have no idea what we will be doing for the Tampa game

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

DL - DE signings... the changes appears to be DEFENSE!

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

maybe we gonna sign leftwich as the third qb, then when he learns the system in a couple weeks he can move up to the no. two?

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

WTF is going on? I feel sorry for Palko. That poor kid must have no idea what is going on.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Palko has no idea what is going on? True.

I have no idea what is going on? In this case, so true.

Anyone have any idea wtf?

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

I heard that Wynn is good vs. the run.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Latest count on active: Offense 27, Defense 23, ST 3. Five TE's?? Maybe we will come out with 3 TE and pound it.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

I NEED TO KNOW what S.P. has in mind

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

thats what we are all waiting for

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Has anyone ever thought that if we are sitting around going WTF?!?!?!?!?!?! That maybe that is a good thing because I am sure Gruden is thinking the same thing as his team is about to take the field.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Judging from what I say last Thursday, Sean Payton himself might be thinking...WTF.

The team looked as confused as we are!!

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

No please. Its simple... we play like crap after Brees sits for a week, it should not come as no surprise what happened in Indy. A SB champion beat us, big deal! We aren't close to being a Champion of that nature just yet.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

If Brees is going to stink everytime he takes a week off, we are doomed for the Home Opener against Vince and Co.

And I'm very suprised that we got be beat by 30 POINTS! Why shouldn't we be...we think our team is good as well. You act as if we should have not shown up to play just because we were playing the Colts.

Anyway, I'm glad we're signing defensive guys. Maybe one of them can contribute...we need it. Maybe we can get one of our MANY TEs to play Defense.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Yeah well go back and take a look at last year after the bye week... no surprise to me. 1st pre-season game FLAT. Started getting into rythm and sat him in the last preseason game... week one FLAT!

I am not to surprised we got beat by 30 either well I actually had it at 28. Due to the fact we play TO MUCH MAN TO MAN. HELLO PAYTON MANNING he will kill you!!! He did it last time we faced them. Until we change the way we play defense its not going to matter who we have in there. Do I think we can make it to the SB you bet, play against NE or Indy, we will lose by 28 plus.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

As much as I hate to say it...as we are currently constructed and playing...we will be KILLED.

So...come on Gary Gibbs...try a lil cover 3, and zone blitzes.

Re: Saints signed DE Josh Savage
 

Well getting beat like that surprised me a lot, simply because our offense was supposed to show up at some point during the game. Everybody keep downing the defense, but the defense showed up in the first half without any help from the offense what soever. Remember the defense out scored the offense, anytime that happens your in danger of losing the game badly 95% of the time.
