Matt Prater Cut
 
Quick Preface: As a fellow Hokie, I love me some Shayne Graham.

But can anyone tell me why in the world this guy isn't on our roster yet? He got cut 12 hours ago!!

Yeah you would think that we would've by now. Idk about you but having the Saints offense only needing to make it to the 40 yard line to score points is quite scary.

When did Graham become the reason for the Saints 1-3 record?

I don't think anyone said he is the reason we are 1-3 but he's definitely a weak link and Prater would (likely) be a huge upgrade.

That's what we think about all new kickers, including Graham... :rofl:

My only concern is signing a kicker with alcohol problems in New Orleans.

Then again, his contract can always be written to protect us from him slipping. And there's tons of AA groups in New Orleans to lend their support.

Cold weather kicker, more reliable than Graham?!?

He's an aged veteran, surprised we haven't signed him...

That is wishful thinking, Danno.

I'm not saying I know anything about this guy or his substance abuse problems mind you. But, having problems twice doesn't sound like bad luck to me.

But, honestly, I don't care if they have to roll the guy onto the field in a wheel barrow -- if he could stand up and kick it through the goal posts 85-90% of the time.

So, whatever, I'm in.
