When it comes to Running Backs, Wide Receivers, Tight Ends, there really are no starters for the Saints, and many teams for that matter - there are only... SUB-PACKAGES... |

Re: Saints sign tight end Alex Smith
Alex is a throw back to days gone by for a TE. Gotta block and do some some receiving.
If the WR corp turns out to be SO SO then this is a solid signing to let the saints use Watson a bit more. Watson is to Graham as Smith is to Watson. you may drop in receiving yards but it is an increase in blocking skills i fully expect the saints to keep an eye on the waiver wire. we passed on TE and WR in draft so it only makes sense. This is a pound the rock type of signing. |
