Saints reportedly sign running back Joique Bell

No PT either??? Great, now defenses are going to "nickel and dime" us to death....literally.

In Drew we trust.He can win a game or four without any proven runningbacks.

I think my money has to go on Jenkins being done for the year with that knee injury.

I can see going after Bell from the Eagles to see what he's got. And a dig at the Eagles for snaking Hill from us.

I don't care let another team nickel and dime us... I don't think there is a team in the playoffs that can cover all of our WR's. Graham will be a go... Line him up outside as a WR... short corner covering him. Reggie at RB to the side with LB covering him.

Go to a spread we'd out talent everyone.

I guess we'll see a lot of short passes to counter a lack of a running game. Multiple receiver sets with quick ball delivery.

Hopefully, don"t want to depend on Reggie for the load.......

That can be dangerous if done too often. Still thinking about the pick 6 in the last game we played vs Atlanta.

Being cut from 3 teams. It's not an upgrade. It's just that the the calling card for a Saints RB position has been downgraded to healthy body.

Hopefully an upgrade, as long as he holds on to the ball and we don"t lose points to turnovers from his lack of time in a running back position this year. Makes me nervous.
