New Orleans Saints Should Take a Long Hard Look at OT Tyson Clabo

04-18-2013, 05:13 AM

Not excited at all by the prospect of signing Clabo; I just don't see him adding anything special to the roster and he won't be signing for vet minimum, so the Saints can't even afford him.

I wouldn't say garbage, but he certainly isn't as good as the guy lining up beside him, who's presence has probably elevated Strief's game during these past two seasons, but that's the nature of the O-line unit.

Strief battled some injuries last season, which affected his performances negatively, so he might not be as bad as f.e. last season would otherwise suggest - I'd be OK with him coming out of the off-/preseason as the starting RT, but I do hope that some other OT (Marcel Jones) beats him out during the season and becomes the future starting RT for years to come.

I've criticized Strief heavily in the past, but I do think he is serviceable and I'm more concerned with the LT position at present.

I'd be glad to see any player get beat out for a starting job including Drew Brees because that would mean we found some one better.
