New Orleans Saints make slew of cuts including wide receivers Steve Breaston, Patrick Crayton

When his claim to fame is being a burner, his pilot light is nearly out, and he shows up overweight and out of shape... Why in the hell does someone want to sign him?

Thinning out the herd!

I like it. Stills and Toon are the 3/4 guys easy at WR. Get them as many reps as you can. That leaves Parker as the #5 and probably Roby at #6, although I really like Hakim's speed.

Thomas was released early. if he's not grabbed by another team, he may be picked back up for the Practice Squad later. We shall see

I think it definitely comes down to Tanner/Roby for that last spot. Tanner is still eligible for the practice squad so Roby may have the edge.

But Parker is also a good special teams player so Tanner may make the cut and Parker replaces Roby.

I've heard virtually nothing from Roby this year, and I'd imagine there will be a slew of special teams aces sitting on the couch waiting for a call if we need one.

Keep Tanner please.

Don't get me wrong as I liked the pickup after the draft... but now can stop with the nonsense that Thomas was going to be our next great OLB or whatnot.

No real big surprise yet.........but we've got a long way to go to get to 53.
There will still be some WTF? by the time we're done.

I was really hoping for a lot more from Chase Thomas. Everyone said that we had the best group of undrafted free-agent signings mainly due to Chase, Kevin Reddick and Rod Sweeting. Disappointed to hear he's been released but here's hoping he clears waivers and we can put him on the practice squad.

No real surprises; if Cadet keeps fumbling his name will be on the cut list!
