Let's take time to appreciate the only bright spot so far
 
Hau'Oli Kikaha has 2 forced Fumbles in 2 consecutive weeks, got his first sack last game

I think this guy is going to be one of the better picks for us, especially for a 3rd round guy.

Sure Junior had a good season, but I think Kikaha is by far the better player

He actually plays the run aswell as the pass

Khiry Robinson needs to get more touches, Ingram played well last season but Khiry is noticeably the better player, our offense seems to get going when we give him the ball.

Yep, Kikaha is going to be a special player. As for Ingram, who knows. Dude is so up and down.

Yes, Kikaha is having very good rookie season so far.


I'd like to add that we might have something in Bobby Richardson.

Kikaha needs a nickname, like TIKI

Not sure on that nickname kind of reminds me of Tiki Barber.

Kikaha gets some help and they might start looking like a unit.
Kid has a good nose for the ball and can actually get there when he targets.
He has good feet even in ground clutter.
Jordan is close a lot - seems 1/2 a step away all the time.
Once the wounded return, and baring any more injuries, defense would really help our situation.

Kikaha is a beast! Wait until we get our #1 CB back and Kikaha has that extra half-second to get to the QB thanks to good coverage.

Kiki, Richardson,and Davidson are doing fine. If our NT or (DT's in our case) were explosive our D would be much better. I'm still waiting on our 31st pick to show up.Kiki=3rd round, Davidson=5th round and Richardson=UDFA.

I really like what I'm seeing from Anthony so far too. Swann is a nice surprise too.

HK isn't the only bright spot at all...

Armstead
Unger
Snead
Cooks
Davison
Richardson
Anthony
Swann
Robinson
KWilliams

And to a slightly lesser extent
Coleman
Breaux
Edebali
Gwacham (Where did this cat come from?)

Obum Gwacham

He was one of the late players the seahawks cut and we scooped up. claimed off waivers. Round 6 so we snagged a free 6th rounder that looks like a solid project.

Gwacham was the No. 209 overall pick of May's draft. More of an athlete than football player, Gwacham hasn't spent much time on the gridiron, but is highly projectable. He'll be a weekly inactive for however long he's on the 53-man roster
Obum Gwacham - New Orleans Saints - 2015 Player Profile - Rotoworld.com

Gwacham is extremely raw after converting from WR and playing just one year of defense at Oregon State. Has rare athletic qualities but he's a major project and won't see the field for another couple of years. --Mark Dulgerian

This part i found interesting

Sources Tell Us

"This guy is going to blow some people away with his explosion numbers and teams will love him in interviews because he's a genuinely good guy. As a player, he still needs a lot of time to develop and you better set aside time for that and have a plan for him." -- NFC South area scout.

Could that be the saints? pretty good chance it was

When I was 12 years old and living in Northwest Louisiana, one of summer hobbies was catching lizards. That summer I caught a large Five Line Skink that I named Tim. About a week after I had obtained Tim my neighbor's cat attacked Tim and ripped off his brilliant blue tail. Having been born and raised in the region of the Lakota Sioux of western South Dakota and given the heritage of the Caddo people of my new home I renamed my skink, Tim No Ta Il.

Tim died later that week.

Should of had a dog, Tims tail would have still been on.
