There are some nervous football players on the roster now. They probably are more nervous than I am.

And a mere phone call away if needed.

I feel for the guys getting cut today. Most of them have been working really hard to reach their dream and now it will be taken away from them.

I'm not down with the "taken away from" angle.

I prefer "they weren't good enough, try again".

No matter how you word it... It's got to suck for these guys.

Looks like we are waiting until the deadline. SP & Mickey must feel that we are going to have some guys claimed.

Jack Vegas 08-29-2014 09:56 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Yeah, probably a few guys they want to put on the PS so they release them the same time as everybody else hoping their names get lost in the shuffle.

arsaint 08-30-2014 09:59 AM

Re: Roster moves
 
Looks like they are waiting to the last minute to release.

I will say that I feel like we are parting ways with some of the most talented players that didn't "make the cut" in team history.

A great feeling to watch some of these guys that have played OK to good and know we will have better on the 53 man roster...

Re: Roster moves
 
we talking a players from other teams we should at?

KR/WR Marc Mariani - if healthy could be a huge boost to the return game. as a WR he has never really done much.

WR/KR Jacoby Ford, - can we figure the guy out? doubt it

ILB Yawin Smallwood - PS maybe worth a look

OG/OC Robert Turner - 30 but starter at both OG positions as well as OC.

More busy day than draft day. I predict two NEW players from outside the current roster over the next few days.

You know Sean and Mickie will be in a cold and calculated chess match as others are playing checkers

That said they already have some well scope out talent under their wings they dont want to let go of

I liked 18 the kick off returner
But they may be just holding back Cooks as our secret weapon

Re: Roster moves
 
CUTS so far
Coleman
Hawkins
Wade
Frederick
Greg Jones
Strozier
Weaver

We've gotta give Stephen hill a try. He's worlds better than toon is and that's without a halfway decent quarterback throwing to him.

Hope, hope, hope we can at least move Strozier to the PS.

I can deal with Coleman making it to the PS, too, but it won't ruin my life if he don't.

Having dirty thoughts about Cooks Hill and Graham Lined up on one side ,Stills and Colston to the other ... My god

Dawson cut, Edebali is in...:bng:

Jack Vegas 08-30-2014 01:57 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Did not expect Dawson to be cut as he was the only backup OLB with any kind of experience. I guess the youth movement is in full effect there.

jeanpierre 08-30-2014 02:00 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Derrius Brooks per Mike Triplett on Twitter...

Marcel Jones could never stay healthy...

blackangold 08-30-2014 02:08 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
shocked on Jones and Dawson.... thought they would make it without question.

jeanpierre 08-30-2014 02:09 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
49er OT Adam Snyder and Seahawks OT Eric Winston are both being released...

Snyder is interesting for backup; apparently no wants union man Eric Winston around...

Jack Vegas 08-30-2014 02:09 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
10 more cuts by my count still need to be made. Welch, Armstrong, probably one of the WR's, a kicker, a corner, at least one safety.

not on Dawson, if Saints like what they saw in Edebali, that makes Dawson odd man out behind Junior...

And I'll tell ya, if Edebali can show a more rounded game, Junior better watch out...

Re: Roster moves
 
Ravens released OL Ryan Jensen; he'd be a solid backup at Guard in our zone blocking scheme...

jeanpierre 08-30-2014 02:36 PM

Brian Dixon made the team...retweeted by Triplett

This makes things interesting...

Re: Roster moves
 
Saints CBs

Keenan Lewis
Patrick Robinson
Champ Bailey
Stanley Jean Baptiste
Corey White
Brian Dixon

Neaux, I don't see six...

brees84 08-30-2014 02:54 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Bailey is gone

Danno 08-30-2014 02:58 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Bailey to be resigned after week one to avoid guaranteed contract

jeanpierre 08-30-2014 03:00 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Maybe he gets the injured/reserved to return tag...

Either way, glad to see Dixon earn a spot on the roster...

vpheughan 08-30-2014 03:01 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
8 minutes!! I can't take the pressure!!! Because you make the final cut doesn't mean you make the team. There will be some that make the "final 53" and get the ax. That has to be the
"unkindest cut of all", pun fully intended.

jeanpierre 08-30-2014 03:05 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Meachem released...per Adam Schefter...

Wow...really thought Meach was in...

NonieT 08-30-2014 03:06 PM

Re: Roster moves
 
Robert Meachem cut.

maybe because of the veteran guaranteed contract thing; maybe signing someone else?!?
