Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Utah, per OverTheCap, cutting Lofton and Hawthorne would result in "Cap Savings" of ($2,800,000) and ($1,020,000), respectively; of note when a value is in parenthesis, that's a negative, so they're penciled in, at least to the roster...
But Payton, which is why I love the Coach, will not let that stop him from starting or playing the better player more... Source: » Over the Cap- New Orleans Saints 2014 Salary Cap and Contracts |

Re: 2014 New Orleans Saints: Depth Chart
Nice link, JP. It shows we have about $13 million in dead money right now.
Now just what could we do with an additional $13 million? | |

SAINTS PROJECTED DEPTH CHART - 2014
OFFENSE QB (2) Drew Brees, Ryan Griffin RB (5) Pierre Thomas, Mark Ingram, Khiry Robinson, Travaris Cadet, Tim Flanders (UDFA) FB (1) Erik Lorig WR (3) Marques Colston, Brandin Cooks (R1, 20), Nick Toon LT (2) Terron Armstead, Tavon Rooks (R6, 202) LG (1) Ben Grubbs C (2) Tim Lelito, Jonathan Goodwin RG (1) Jahri Evans RT (2) Zach Strief, Bryce Harris TE (3) Jimmy Graham, Benjamin Watson, Josh Hill WR (3) Kenny Stills, Robert Meachem, Brandon Coleman (UDFA) DEFENSE DE (3) Cameron Jordan, Tyrunn Walker, George Uko (UDFA) NT (2) Brodrick Bunkley, John Jenkins DE (2) Akiem Hicks, Glenn Foster OLB (2) Junior Galette, Rufus Johnson ILB (3) Curtis Lofton, Ramon Humber, Khairi Fortt (R4, 126) ILB (2) David Hawthorne, Kevin Reddick OLB (2) Parys Haralson, Ronald Powell (R5, 169) CB (3) Keenan Lewis, Corey White, Patrick Robinson SS (2) Kenny Vaccaro, Marcus Ball FS (2) Jarius Byrd, Rafael Bush (RFA) CB (2) Champ Bailey, Stanley Jean-Baptiste (R2, 58) SPECIALISTS K (1) Shayne Graham P (1) Thomas Morstead LS (1) Justin Drescher H Thomas Morstead PR Brandin Cooks (R1, 20), Travaris Cadet KR Travaris Cadet, Pierre Thomas KO Thomas Morstead, Shayne Graham KEY: POS (#Likely Slots) Projected Starter Franchise Tagged/Restricted - Unsigned Free Agent Free Agent (RFA) {Restricted Free Agent} Free Agent (ERFA) {Exclusive Rights Free Agent} Free Agent (FC) {Futures Contract} Draft Pick (R#, Pick#) Undrafted Rookie Free Agent (UDFA) Who'd I'd consider the odds on to be on the roster after camp... Wish list would include another special teams returner, an inside offensive linemen, and an offensive tackle to develop... See Haralson and Butler fighting it out for a spot and the other not on the team... Don't like it but Lofton and Hawthorne have Salary Cap Job Security; that doesn't mean Payton won't play better options... Austin Johnson has opportunity to upset Lorig at FB; will watch that one... Meachem's salary cap number may make him suspect; but I'm not sure Coach wants that much turnover in the WR and he does offer much even if he was a bust as a Round one pick... A good cornerback isn't going to make this roster; unless Robinson really regresses or caves during competition, I think he gets another oppotunity... Sure wished we'd drafted another big Nose Tackle... |
