Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Man I could stare at this roster all day. Great battles coming....Robinson/Ingram, Stills/Morgan, Toon/Hull/Coleman. I think Lorig could be what gets this team over the hump.

Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Looking at our running backs and their size, I was surprised to learn that Robinson, not Ingram looks like our biggest dynamo...
Pierre Thomas - 5' 11", 215 lbs. Mark Ingram - 5' 9", 215 lbs. Travaris Cadet - 6' 1", 210 lbs. Khiry Robinson - 6' 0", 220 lbs. Tim Flanders - 5' 9", 207 lbs. |

Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Anybody at camp see any names not on this list that could push for the final 52?!? Apparently the Long Snapper, number 53, is a given...
Any news on Je'Ron Hamm, Nic Jacobs, Brandon Coleman or Steve Hull?!? Or how the battle for the strong safety spot is going between Ty Zimmerman, Marcus Ball or Vinnie Sunseri?!? Will we have a fifth safety with FS Pierre Warren? Will we keep Goodwin if Lelito wins the job?!? |

Brandin Cooks showing screen game, stealing the show | ProFootballTalk
During Tuesday’s practice, Cooks took a quick bubble screen the distance, and the video of him pulling away from the Saints defense is frankly alarming. This report brought to you by PFT's Gnatt - Saints Hater... Now, question is, could Cooks push Stills to the 3 spot?!? |

Cooks is way ahead of any WR on the Saints roster. I have no doubt that Cooks will lead the WR core in receiving yards. Colston had his worst NFL season last year and isn't getting any younger. Stills is not the same caliber player that Cooks is. Personally I wouldn't be surprised to see Cooks starting with Toon or Morgan this year. |

Cooks needs to be in the slot.

Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Cook will not have a spot on the field this year. mark my words ! ***he will be like Bush. that boy will be running all over the place even before the ball is snapped. 300+ yards in motion alone per game till season end. no way will have just one position. he is going to line up all over the place.

Hey ZachSaints52,
How are special teams play looking thus far? Guys getting off the line quickly? Staying in their lanes? Anyone stand out thus far? Your thoughts and insight are appreciated since you are 'up close'. |
Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
There hasn’t been much buzz around (Marcus) Ball this summer since he has been running with the third string. And Galette said he knew Ball was disappointed by his start in OTAs. But the former Canadian Football League standout stepped up in his biggest audition yet. He showed great instincts on the interception, shooting in front of Cooks to pick off McCown. He also had a sack on a blitz and a nice run stop. Ball even got the crowd involved, turning and yelling to the “Who Dats!” “The one thing I would say based on the film study was his ability to tackle in the open field, and he has really good football instincts. The interception he had today was a good example of that,” said head coach Sean Payton, who credited player personnel director Ryan Pace and the scouts. “The ball kind of finds him, and it did a lot when we watched the tape. He was very, very productive in the CFL, and I think he has a chance to be a real good special teams player.” - Mike Triplett
Source: New Orleans Saints Camp Report Day 8 - ESPN Had hoped this guy would come in and earned a roster spot; reading this, my optimism has returned; for everyone that wanted Louisville Safety Calvin Pryor, this is our FA/CFL answer... |

Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Nick Toon, Brandon Coleman - Toon needs to talk to colston and learn how to use that size of his to get some yards after the catch. maybe he is worried about catching the ball. Coleman is PS bond at this rate. first game jitters? maybe but boy he dug himself into a whole.
Kyle Knox - is just what his Bio said he was. hard worker that seems to always get in the right spot at the right time. i hope he gets tested more next week |
Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
I have a hard time believing Champ Bailey will play much, if at all period. Which makes me question the money we spent on him and his busted wheels. Better see some good stuff out of the CBs next few games or God-like play from our safeties.

Coleman definitely put himself in a hole with that performance; hoping he can rebound... Toon just seems to be lacking that hunger, drive; the physical tools are there as well... Knox plays as he had, he definitely makes the kicking game, but the special teams still look incohesive... |

So what if we cut Victor Butler, do we sign anybody else? I think he is in for 2 Mio this season. I wouldn`t mind a little more depth at the offensive line to be honest. I think there are a couple of guys that can fill in as OLB this season.
