Word on him is that hes a tad small, blazing fast, but still a little raw and inconsistent (describes 50% of NFL CB's).

If a cornerback is hurt in the first play off win then the saint most likely resign chris carr as it takes a few weeks to learn playbook as it took a few weeks for the saints to work wade on to the game day roster by the way i think wade has played ok.Only way carr would not be signed is if they think federick has learned the playbook.But if you whish for three rings 3rd being in 2014 not to soon to think about next year an the saints have found some good undrafted players over the years.

Can't wait for ESPN to say this guy can't play in the cold, just because he puts a Saints uniform on.

Exactly what i was thinking, sproles isnt making anything happen, let someone with more top end speed take over next year

4:25 ain't fast, its blazing. Even in the NFL there are only a handful of guys with that kind of speed. If he can return we just got another weapon.

Yes, that is serious speed & Saalim Hakim comes to mind (sub 4.3). When I saw Hakim earlier in Saints camp, he couldn't run a route to save his life but boy he could separate.

Hopefully this CFL guy works out for us.

Akiem Hicks is a player, for sure
Let's see how Derrius Brooks goes.
Because for every Akiem Hicks, there is a Chris Williams. The fella who came to the Saints in October 2013 but is now with the Bears.
Yep I am with you bro'

I see it as the front office doing work, never know what this kid might be. He could be something special and if not and gets cut, no big loss...
