Fullback?
Any news on us resigning Heath or even picking up someone better?
|
We picked up Hall from GB. He is not bad.
|
And D.T can handle the job as well
|
SO over Evans... glad he is gone.

Seemed lost and the game has passed him. We NEED to upgrade at FB after all we have a 1st round RB we need to get him some help there. |
I bet we won't have roster room for a conventional FB. To be honest it is such a part-time role in this offense. I would like to see David Thomas play some H-back and FB when needed. Or put Strief in to bring the pain and create a running lane. Heck, just teach one of our reserve DE or LB's to lead block.

I was wondering if he would be back too. One thing I respect about him is that he done alot within the community.

He can run for Mayor then but this is football.

Sean likes using extra TE's anyway... its not like we have to have a FB.

Just noticed Leonard Weaver is a free agent. Maybe if he can recover from his ACL, we could grab him. Was just an All-Pro back in 09 and has one of the meanest stiff arms in the game. I've met the guy and he's very passionate about the game. If you can come back from depression and addiction, you can come back from injury.

Hall should do a good job not worried about it much. Get in your playbook though.

Hall gets us younger (per NFL, Saints are the second oldest club) and more athletic at Fullback... Hall is a converted linebacker, who was outstanding in college, that was recognized for his athletic talent... Plus you have to want a guy that will submit the ego and change positions just so he can get on the field... I believe there are two other rookie free agents on the roster... Chances are though we will keep only one as their are very few packages in this offense that requires a Panzer to plow the road or do an end-around for a quick pass from Brees when opposing D keys on running back... |
Hall was also one of GB's special team aces.

And we signed UDFA FB Kolby Hurt, who might be a solid practice squad FB and emergency fill-in. Also with great special teams potential. He also played LB in college.

I know FB is a dyig position & I do not get it. Look at some of the best years by RBs & you normally see a good FB blocking for him!!
