Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
As the roster is now...
These are the seven (7) burning questions that will affect draft decisions: (1) Is Tim Lelito capable of stepping into the starting role at Left Guard? (2) Do we stand pat at WR and allow Toon, Coleman, Jones and Saunders to have an extended audition or do we spend a high draft pick at WR? (3) Do we spend a mid-round pick (r3-r5) on Tight End or do we see what we can did up in the UDFA mine? (4) Do we extend the contract of Cam Jordan or do we draft his replacement in the first two rounds? (5) Do we finally start investing first and second day picks on linebackers or do we stay in mediocrity and draft even more offensive weapons? (6) Do we have enough talent at cornerback and wait to spend a first rounder on a CB? Does SJB step up and fill out the CB corps? (7) Can a team have too many safeties? |
Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Throughout the offseason discussion, it's still apparent we're thin at offensive line and the front seven on defense...
First three picks really need to be defensive front seven... Around the third round we need to start taking offensive linemen... |

Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Scott, we've carried three quarterbacks since the Rams tried to claim Griffin early off the PS last season...
Brees starts, depending on how Griffin and Grayson do, it'll be interesting... If Grayson flops, he's out, he sure wouldn't stay on the Practice Squad for long... Payton obviously doesn't feel it for Griffin as they took Grayson... McCown's only concern is that if Griffin and Grayson perform well and Griffin performs as well in pre-season, then McCown's salary number could cost him... |

Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Well, we still have some major depth issue on the interior of both sides of the ball...
But if we don't have a solid ****ing corps of cornerbacks now, we'll never have it... Still in shock we drafted three, THREE, linebackers; we should always draft at least one linebacker every draft with a first through fourth round pick... Would really like to have drafted another defensive lineman... Really surprised we didn't take a guard with Evans' age... |
Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Now let's get them coached up to knock a snot bubble in some opponents noses! |

Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Now to get some depth on the interior offensive line... Wonder if we could trade one of our potential twelve (12) safeties! Wouldn't mind bringing back DE Corey Wootton for another visit and maybe a modest contract... |
Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Im expecting a vet WR to be brought in.
Even if its just for camp to help players and have somebody ready in case of injury. Obviously have to be cheap. Reggie Wayne Lance Moore Robert Meachem Keep them up on the playbook and ready to come in on a short term deal |
Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
I'd like to see Lance come back home. We know what we're getting with him.
|
Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
I agree with revisiting with both Lance Moore and Robert Meachem, but I'd wait and see, allowing some of these young receivers (i.e. Jalen Saunders, Nick Toon, Brandon Coleman, Seantavius Jones) to get more reps and see if they'd be a younger, faster, better group...

Re: 2015 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
It looks like we did a pretty good job of filling holes through the draft and UDFA's. I am still concerned about the depth at guard though.
