That's how I see it as well!

I just like that good players want to play here despite our record and last season. Very positive.

Can he play immediately or not?

Keep 'em for the season! Always a premium on big, speedy linebackers...

I'll play analyst and read into this signing this way...

...the Saints have probably received negative prognosis(s) for Ellerbe, Hawthorne and/or Humber...

And Saints prefer Mauti to focus, maintain energy as a special teams ace where he'd have the most impact...

Agree with the other kid that we just stole a great supporting cast player as the door of opportunity has swung in our favor...

Don't matter how you get here, if you're here, can play, give max effort, stay off Twitter, then there's plenty of gumbeaux here for ya...

I like the steal. OLB that can run and cover are lacking with our group.
14 games 68 tackles, six pass defenses and an interception.two starts
6-foot-3, 238-pounder is a solid size since we are a 43 defense for the most part now a days.

But and this is a big BUT... saints cut FB Austin Johnson. No real FB on the team? Guess 3 TE sets will be the

We are awfully thin at the LB position right now.

Hawthorne was full at yesterdays practice from what I understand.

Mohamed, 27, spent two full seasons with the Houston Texans before being released last month.

Mohamed was listed at 6-foot-3 and 238 pounds with Houston. He wore No. 98 at Saints practice on Wednesday.

If I am not mistaken this is the LB that was black balled. If I am correct he was posting and saying anti Jewish and Christian views for the past 2 seasons. I just read something on it but can't find it now. I'll post if I can.
