I know what you are saying but I don't think the coaching staff is overly concerned with "doing the right thing" as much as putting a winning team on the field.

I agree, but I just thought that 'cos the early reports were positive on Hamilton's condition and practicing - and that he was just a roster casualty in the first place - that he would make the team better instead of bringing in somebody, who has no familiarity with the Saints' system.

But Lynell would know right off that when Bell and Ivory heal, he's gone.

He may be waiting for a team that loses a RB for the season, instead of being a temporary fill-in for a team needing a camp body RB.
