IR is how Payton stashes players he doesn't want on the PS.

Khairi Fortt will play inside
Payton - He was a good player not on a good defense. Should be able to play special teams.

Fortt: ILB candidate, says coach Sean Payton. Good player, good speed, athleticism, can play ST, on not a good D.

Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 51s
#Saints Payton said he sees 4th-round pick Fortt as weak ILB candidate.

Ramon Antonio Vargas ‏@RVargasAdvocate 1m
Payton on Sunseri: ACL repair went will. Can participate in OTAs, minicamp. W/out contact, won't be a problem.

Katherine Terrell ‏@Kat_Terrell 1m
Ronald Powell will play outside linebacker.

Katherine Terrell ‏@Kat_Terrell 51s
Tavon Rooks, who played tackle, will stay at that position.

Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 42s
#Saints Payton said Ronald Powell could play OLB (Sam). Rooks offensive tackle.

Not deep draft at center position, Payton said. Handful of centers

Payton wants immediate improvement on special teams and with this kids speed, he could develop into a nice gunner.

Looks like Payton maybe coming up with an alternative to the oline by giving Brees better field positions with STs.

#saints made 'real good progress' during draft, but these 2-3 hours are important in UDFA, Payton said.


Mike Triplett ‏@MikeTriplett 1m
#Saints Payton declined to say whether there's a chance they'll sign veteran C Jonathan Goodwin.

SP just called my 8 yr old son Justin because he did very well playing OG/OT last year. Loves the fact that he can play both positions. UDFA here we come!
