He will make the PS, or could possibly sneak onto the 53. |

Re: Cuts - Butler and Rufus
Reddick and Sweeting both were waived, are they eligible for PS?

That was Rickey Jackson/Pat Swilling/Lawrence Taylor- son, y'all gotta do better than this rush speed... Just hope he's not another Martez where the physical measurables are WOW and the mental part is DUD... |

Here's a list of PS eligibility because of the new rules... A look at Saints players with practice squad eligibility | Black and Gold The NFL announced some changes to practice squads in 2014 and 2015, which increases the maximum number of players from eight to 10, and also expands the eligibility for players who have earned no more than two accrued seasons. Previously, players who earned one or more accrued seasons were not allowed to be placed on practice squads unless the player spent fewer than nine games on the active roster in their accrued seasons. Under the new rules, the two additional players on each practice squad can have up to 32 games on an active roster over their first two seasons. What this means is that any 2012 or 2013 rookie can now fill the final two practice squad spots. The other eight players remain under the old rules. For the Saints, who have a young roster, this means there are now several candidates who could fill out the practice squad. The following is a list of players who have practice squad eligibility by one means or another (assuming our understanding of the new rules are correct). However, it should be noted some combinations of the following names would not work due to the differing sets of rules. S Pierre Warren T Terron Armstead C Matt Armstrong S Marcus Ball CB Derrius Brooks WR Brandon Coleman WR Brandin Cooks LB Todd Davis K Derek Dimke CB Brian Dixon LB Kasim Edebali RB Timothy Flanders T Manase Foketi LB Khairi Fortt DE Glenn Foster CB Terrence Frederick QB Ryan Griffin TE Je’Ron Hamm WR Charles Hawkins TE Josh Hill TE Nic Jacobs CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste NT John Jenkins DE Rufus Johnson FB Austin Johnson T Marcel Jones WR Seantavius Jones G Senio Kelemete QB Logan Kilgore LB Kyle Knox T Ty Nsekhe WR Tobais Palmer LB Ronald Powell LB Kevin Reddick RB Khiry Robinson T Tavon Rooks WR Kenny Stills RB Derrick Strozier S Vinnie Sunseri CB Rod Sweeting WR Andy Tanner WR Nick Toon DE George Uko LB Chidera Uzo-Diribe S Kenny Vaccaro DE Tyrunn Walker T Jason Weaver S Ty Zimmerman |

Re: Cuts - Butler and Rufus
Reddick showed promice last year. I guess he was maxed out. Rufus is a tweener who should just try to find a spot as a 4-3 rush end somewhere.
