Hester, Jefferson trying to make Saints roster

Hester looks like he is focused. I say give him a chance and let's make an Ingram vs Hester poll already.

We have a lot of rookie & FA receivers and need a 3rd arm to throw them the ball so they get reps.

My guess is the FO got JJ to camp cheaply and he is the equivalent of a Jugs machine, except that he is more erratic, so the coaches get to see who can make adjustments and acrobatic catches

Hester was a really good special teamer and we always seem to have problems there. I could see him playing a role in our offense similar to what David Thomas did. Kind of a hybrid fullback/tight end.

Our special teams issues lie at a higher level than the players -except maybe the place kicker.

Lookin' at you, Greg McMahon. Regardless of Special Teams talent, Ol' Greg would screw it up. This man would screw up a BLT sandwich...make something like a Bologna-Lipstick-Turd sandwich.

Might be a good guy, but he has no business leading anything or anybody.

I honestly don't think there's room for such a limited role player on this 53 when there might already be upwards of 10 DBs making the final roster.

Both players had a ton of talent but lacked the mental parts needed.

I'll take anyone that can come in and make the Saints a better team.

I'm a Bama fan so I don't know anything about LSU players. I'll just have to wait and see how they pan out. Most likely none of these guys will make the roster.

Hear ye hear ye.....

If Jordan Jefferson makes the Saints roster, I will stop being a Saints fan.
