INSIDER ANALYSIS
Grade 52
Expert's Take He is a short, thickly built player with good strength and above-average athletic ability for the position. Wynn is a one-cut runner who needs to utilize his power to move the pile. He isn't an explosive athlete but does have good balance, foot agility and quickness for his size. He is inconsistent as a receiver and blocker in the passing attack. He lacks speed and burst to press the corner and is a limited role player who needs to improve his overall game. Wynn is a solid backup if he can stay healthy.

didnt he play for the Packers?...if so he had some good runs if i remember...

can't be a camp body, special teams player?

He played for the Pack and has had injuries. He appears to be a bruiser if he can stay healthy. Low risk, high reward type signing.

PJ Hill was just put on IR today. So now we know why the Saints signed Wynn

Yeah he's an ex packer.

saw when left the game but returned a little later and did well. must have tore something

Our FO is very good at finding these low risk, high reward type players. Man, that sucks for Hill. Oh well, maybe next year he'll get another shot at the roster. Our backs are starting to drop.......hopefully he'll stay healthy and be productive here. Payton really like good blockers.

I'm digging on Ivory. That guy is a real beast. I like his running style alot.
