@caplannfl: Saints placed RB Chris Ivory on IR. that should mean that Joique Bell makes the Saints roster.

I'm excited for Bell.

Too bad for Ivory but luckily Ingram is more than capable of filling his role. Looks like this will always be the problem with Ivory... he just can't stay healthy.

Thanks for the red BREAKING NEWS thing. I don't know how to do that.

I wonder, why not PUP, which gives us 9 weeks to decide to keep him active or IR him in week 9? What if we lose 3 RB's in the 1st 6 weeks? He could have been insurance.

I'm not sure it's an option for you guys... which is probably why when biloxi-indian post something, he always uses NEWS. In order for me to get it on the front page, I have to switch it to BREAKING NEWS.

We probably feel real comfortable with what we have. Let's say he comes back and Bell is playing well, who would we cut? I think it's the best for all parties. He earns his salary while getting the whole season and offseason to get his body right.

IIRC, You can place him on IR at that time.

Is there a limit to the amount of players on the PUP? Well nevermind, in the cut list I don't see anyone on it anyways. I see your point... maybe he's hurt more than we realize.

I think having Bell made this easier..Like Papz said he needs the time to heal up...was Cobbs IRd also?

I got this excerpt off rotoworld.

Ivory reported to training camp still rehabbing last year's Lisfranc fracture, and promptly needed sports hernia surgery. He was eligible for the PUP list after not practicing in August, so it can't be a good sign that the Saints moved to end Ivory's season when they could've reevaluated after a couple of months.

Pretty much what was in Danny's article.
