"The New Orleans Saints have brought back wide receiver Robert Meachem, four days after releasing him in the initial cut to the 53-man roster. As a corresponding move, they placed rookie linebacker Khairi Fortt on injured reserve with a designation to return."

Same receiver for less money. Mickey Loomis is the CAP MASTER!!!

I don't know how much Fortt has to offer mid season if he comes back.

I agree, but on a "glass half full" note, it must mean that we expect Stills and Lorig back before week 6.

Goes back to my theory... you put on your rosters players that will help you win now. Griffin isn't one of them.

And Luke Mccown is?

Griffin should be #2 qb

We wouldn't have to rebuild if Griffin was on the roster; we'd just reload...

Ah well, F*** it...

I think people tend to evaluate Griffin the way they do mainly because he's a Tulane graduate. If he had come from another program; I don't think he would be held in such high regard.

I truly haven't seen anything spectacular from him this far... at least nothing that SP couldn't coax out of some other low-round/UDFA prospect.
