Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Quote:
Rankins is a true 3-tech; see him starting in the base 4-3 packages as the 3/4-tech and being moved around to get one-on-one matchups with FA Fairley coming in as a 3-tech on obvious passing subs; should Rankins' lack of size to lock down his area be an issue as it was with Sed Ellis, the Saints Draft Team will have overreached, again; and coaches will be busy finding a balance of rotating Rankins and Fairley to their strengths... Assuming Onyemata progresses and is coached up enough to make the roster, fans will need to temper expectations for a couple of seasons as this man is a real raw prospect; I'd expect to see him initially on short-yardage packages and possibly occasionally to spell a starter should we have control (significant lead) in a game; if Onyemata progresses to play significantly in this year or even early next; it'll be lagniappe for the team and a win for the Saints draft team... |

One UDRFA acquisition to keep an eye on is FS Trae Elston outta Ole Miss; if Saints coaching gives him half a chance, he'll be a good one; personally, thought he was every bit as good as Vonn Bell; but with the Cap Money committed to Byrd and the high pick committed to Bell, his chances are really tough... Know many are excited about getting Landon Turner, a projected second/third round pick very late in the draft season; but two UDRFA I really like are BYU's Ryker Mathews and A&M's Joe Cheek; Mathews reminds me alot of Zach Strief, his fate can be tied to the Saints if Strief makes the final roster, likely, and Peat moves into guard, 50/50; Joseph Cheek is interesting as he's like a lighter Carl Nicks with similar athletic builds; Cheek's a smart guy who should pick up things quick, but he'll have to pick bulk quickly without a dropoff in movement, skill and Cheek could use a little more 'violence' to his game... Dillon Lee is a real wild card and the guy I'm locking in on this offseason... Alot of good talent is either not going to get used and result in trade or out and out release for not being a good fit for what Payton will let D.A. install... Running backs are a dime a dozen in the Saints' scheme unless your name is Ingram; all offer impressive talents; one dropped outlet pass will lead to a solid No.2 RB on any NFL roster getting released... |
Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Wonder if there's a chance we could get back that 2017 fifth round pick for Jairus Byrd? or get a fourth round pick for C.J. Spiller?

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
FS Trae Elston was a productive player and was always in the middle of everything. I like the DBs the saints have brought in as UDFA.

I wouldn't sleep on Stupar or Ediboli and I'll add Davidson with them. Ascending players with really good upside. I'm curious to see how Anthony does as an OLB.

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
I spent the past few days looking at 2017 mock draft and the ones that actually predict a seasons standings. Guess what, almost all of them have us pretty much back in the top 10. Last place in south.
So if you believe the media scouts there is no reason getting hyped or excited by any of our additions. Me i say they are all overrated. I can not wait to see what happens with fat boy gone. |

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Really don't like that the Saints used two picks to get DT David Onyemata when there was better, more developed tackles available into the fifth round of the draft...
We caught a break with the UDRFA class with the interior offensive line and with free safety... We still could use another long defensive end and another interior defensive lineman... |

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Jenkins is a strong candidate for two reasons; one, Payton really wanted to install a 3-4 front and Jenkins, pardon the pun, was a big part of that plan...
Don't think you hang it all on Jenkins, Rob Ryan lacked the organizational skills to install and run the defense, now you have Dennis Allen who's a 4-3 system guy and Jenkins is a poor fit and D.A. hasn't shown the creativeness to put together a plan with what he has, rather going out looking for pieces... I can see the Saints trying to trade Spiller and possibly even Byrd before outright releasing them... Should Keenan Lewis age, injuries continue to be an issue throughout offseason and training camp, Westbank could also be expendable if last seasons' draft picks progress... |

Actual if Jenkins has any hope of getting his career back on track it is in a 43. The 34 was joke once teams scout him up. He spent his whole time getting blocked into the concession stands. Foe a guy that size it is amazing how he got rage dolled and pancaked time and time again. He still has the same knock against him as when he came out of college. Poor game strength. I call it lazy. DA did a great job IMO. he along cost us from being in the top ten in the draft. Quote:

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
Advocate Blog Network: New Orleans Saints release three to make room for rookies
The New Orleans Saints have released fullback Toben Opurum, running back Vick Ballard and defensive end Phillip Hunt in order to get down to the NFL’s 90-man roster limit. New Orleans drafted five players and added 19 undrafted free agents, bringing the total roster numbers to 93 and forcing three cuts. Opurum, a fourth-year player out of Kansas, spent most of the season on the practice squad in 2015, but he was active for two games and played on special teams. Hunt, a pass rusher who made his name in the CFL, also had a brief cameo on the Saints’ 53-man roster, although he did not play in any games. Ballard, a former Indianapolis Colt, was hoping for a shot to prove himself, but the Saints have a loaded backfield that got even more crowded when New Orleans drafted rookie Daniel Lasco in the seventh round. Note: The Saints will have to release another player when DT David Onyemata is signed to be within the 90-man player limit. Note: Toben Opurum was claimed off waivers by the Broncos; Best Wishes! |
