Hull can play FS/SS an WR in his one year as Wr had over 1000 yards.Stozier at 5-6/180 almost a size clone of sproles.Cheta has played past few years with Bears.

saints slow to update roster add OC-Mike Golic & OG/OT-Manase Foketi both one year 2013 UFDA players & 2014 ufda NT-Moses Mc Cray out of Akron & the 3 try out players signed today.One thing new on your roster link was OLB/DE-Kasim Edebali a 2014 ufda player out of Boston College.Days ago it was reported i think on a Saint team link he was one of 17 players signed however on the Mini camp roster he was listed as a tryout player.nice the roster had Tulane Devon Walker listed as FS#18

Re: Saints sign 3 tryout players today to 90 camp roster
 

Interesting signing. But at a 4.56 / 40 I doubt he clones Sproles.

"Strozier (5-feet-7, 180 pounds) was actually a standout cornerback for the Green Wave last year. But he spent time at both positions in college, and Saints coach Sean Payton said on Saturday that Strozier chose to try out as a running back.

“To his credit, I think he felt his chances were better with his size at that position than maybe playing defensive back,” Payton said. “I know he was their player of the year on defense and played a big role in their success. Very quickly you can see why. He is smart and he understands what we are doing, and it seems to come pretty quickly to him."

"Leave no stone unturned". Great, let's evaluate em all. You never know what we may find.

Re: Saints sign 3 tryout players today to 90 camp roster
 

Darrren Sproles 5'6" 187
40YD 4.47
20 2.62
10 1.55
3 cone 6.96

Derrick Strozier 5'7" 180
40YD Low 4.46
20 2.58
10 1.57
3 cone 6.99


They are a lot closer than you think in measurables.

Re: Saints sign 3 tryout players today to 90 camp roster
 

My point was that he doesn't have near the skill at RB that Sproles has and still consistently runs a bit slower. But stranger things have happened I guess.

This is a talented roster. The final cuts are going to be tough. You know teams are going to want our discards.

The New Orleans Saints have signed former Vanderbilt offensive lineman Thomas Welch, following a tryout over the weekend.

They also made official the signings of wide receiver Steve Hull, outside linebacker Cheta Ozoughwu and former Tulane running back Derrick Strozier.

The team waived nose tackle Brandon McCay and offensive guard Micajah Reynolds, both who signed undrafted rookie free agent contracts shortly after the draft.

I think Vinnie Sunseri officially has #43. They must've run out of numbers for tryout players so he got one of Darren's old jerseys seeing as how it would fit him.

Sproles was 5-6.1/187with 4.47speed from the picture he looks around 190 range.
