Charleston as a standup end or big OLB in the cards???

FinSaint

I would think as an end... at least for the first 4 games due to the "Smith-gate"
which will probably be his change to show something to the staff in rotation to secure
a roster spot for the rest of the season. If he can't do that... he may get cut after those first 4 games.

As many Saints beat writers have said, the audition for defensive end will geaux into the regular season because of the Will "Smith-gate" thing as you say...

That's fine with me because you get more film, in fact better live bullets film, to assess who's best for your team...

Again, really good battle setting up at Defensive Back when Porter gets back- Fabian Washington has been getting burned/out of position/struggling grasping scheme.

Everyone but quarterbacks and offensive lineman have been on special teams

The Will Smith suspension will have the Saints carry an extra Defensive Lineman for sure; but how 'bout Junyah, Junyah, Junyah???

The rookie wide receiver free agents show that Coach Payton can flat-out pick 'em; Arrington can play, but he's not going to make the team if he can't get right...

After Monday Day Off for Players, the real survival of the fittest will begin...

Ivory hernia sx looks like he's setting up for the PUP list and won't be back till after Week 8...

Two potential ProBowlers at Nose Tackle...wow...

Linebackers picture will be better mid-next week; Shanle shows he's the guy until he can be unseated; Will Herring will be the Nickel-Linebacker...

Any doubt Kreutz would start? Did anyone see that asinine grading of the offensive lines by the CBS Sportsline Fantasy Dork???

Funny how Brown is back on the field at Tackle all of a sudden? Needs to lose the USC 'tude

Cam Jordan looks to be what was expected from Charles Grant; how long does he have a professional attitude?

With the emphasis on special teams, shouldn't Drew Brees serve as Placekicker holder?!?

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

FinSaint

But where would Chase get his chance to shine then?

He has to have the dips on all holding situations...

jeanpierre

Like the caterpillar in the coocoon, he should wait patiently and at the right time become a beautiful butterfly...




Regrets I couldn't find a cat dressed in a Bug's Life/Heimlich outfit...

FinSaint

That does look a little bit like Chase... like Brees said, he is a little chunky.

Oh, Darren Sproles, Joique Bell have looked really good in camp and could make Roby expendable in the return game; special teams really adding another dimension to the competition...
