If a dude can rush the passer consistently, the coach isn't going to care if he's out there wearing a pink feather boa and singing showtunes. He just got caught in a numbers game in St. Louis.

I actually think the Saints could be a very good place for him if we were to claim him. He's a lot more developed as a pass rusher than anybody we have behind Galette. He's not an OLB but then again Galette isn't really that either.

Sam is good enough to be on someone's roster who runs a 4-3 defense. If he doesn't get picked up, although I expect him to be on the Rams PS, it isn't because he can't play the game.

And I won't care if his skin is green or if he's wearing a boa either. Doesn't mean I need to hear about every single minute of his day.

Colston was taken at just about the same place in the draft. How much coverage did he get? And Colston set records.

Sam should end up on the Cowboys... He could seriously help out that defense

$$$$

The move makes me scratch my head skill wise and what has been shown in camp/preseason. However, Meachum's veteran minimum cost is way higher.

Re: Roster moves
 
I'm curious what they're doing keeping that many Safety spots on the roster as well as 2 FBs. Lorig hasn't seemed to do much if anything at all but we did pay for him vs Johnson who to me has done well.

In Loomis we trust.........

Re: Roster moves
 
I would expect Meachem was cut because Joe Morgan fills the same role in the offense. He's younger, faster, cheaper than Meachem.

I think we might end up seeing Lorig put on IR/PUP to make room for whatever kicker they sign Monday.

YUP. Plus Morgan can actually make the short to medium range catches to boot. Still surprised they cut Meach, but onward and upward.

I like Dixon making the team. But cutting Warren to keep Ball that stings, Warren has outplayed him hands down. I really hope he clears waivers but I doubt it.

The only thing I can think of is that Ball has shown more with his days in the CFL... He's been fighting injury this whole off-season...

I want Alex Henery. I really can't understand how he got released.

Disappointing finish of 2013 and poor preseason. Rookie kicker outperformed him.

Maybe our punter can handle both duties...

BOOM...nailed it. Saves a roster spot as Morstead is a freakin' beast. I'd trust him over Graham.

However, reality bites. We need a kicker. Wow...sounds like a broken record.

the other kid has a cannon for leg. Alex i think gets the goat award for the playoff loss to the saints when he missed that 30 yarder. inside if 50 his percentage has dropped over the past three years

Your comparing apples & oranges their skill set is totally different, Sam is a decent player I do think he can play in the league but at a pro-bowl caliber level...I don't think so this pre-season from him was a lot of effort plays
