In the Saints defense there were just too many holes to fill and too little money. They decided to beef up the line which I think is smart. If they can protect Brees better than he has been protected in the last couple seasons he will make some of the no name receivers look better than they are.

I don't see how trading a major contributor to the saints offense for two players that will be on IR benefit us when we have 2 wr, 3 at best (? Brandon Coleman?) he might not be producing in Miami but I know what he can do here.

I would like to know if the source that is leaking out info (that Brees wanted the trade and he was a disruption in the locker room) a reliable source. Those rumors never came out during last season

Obviously the Saints saw something negative that maybe we didnt. And now here's a report saying that he's fighting for the 3rd wr spot in miami.

Re: The 2 Morgans

You might be right but I would like to know what those negative factors are. Fighting for a 3rd wr spot is not as bad having 2 IR players to start the season

Re: The 2 Morgans

Joe gets the roster spot by default. But, if ANYONE remotely interesting gets cut, he'll be out the door.

I agree with that. After Cooks, Colston, and Snead, no one convinces me as a WR. So depending how many WRs Payton wants to keep, after those 3, is Coleman and Joe Morgan by default, and neither of the 2 will make or break the Saints.

Re: The 2 Morgans

Roster cuts may fill a spot or two at WR.

Re: The 2 Morgans

After watching the Packers scub WR's last night, that's the first place I'd look to see who gets cut. :)

There was no way of knowing that those players would be on IR. Hindsight is a ***** and its easy to say that now. I don't know how true those rumors are either but the FO felt like there needed to be a trade and made it happen for whatever reason. When it comes to stupid trade and money decisions there are a lot more places to point than just the Stills trade.

Re: The 2 Morgans

Hmm,,,, maybe we should take a closer look back at robert meachem
