Looking more and more like we hit gold in the 7th round! Again!

Gonna be strange to have a linebacker that can provides some honest cover skills?!?

Finally! Some Old-School Training Camp! Expect a phone call from the NFLPA!

Really, Really, Really wish we had kept Darren Sproles and then transitioned over a couple of seasons to bring Marcus Murphy along...

If Murphy can develop the work ethos of Sproles - oh baby!

Onyemata really needs to step up in his first year to justify using two draft picks to acquire him...this is a welcomed post!

I'm hopeful Dillon can do some good things at camp and in PS game #2.

If Murphy can figure out this fumbling/muff punt thing, he'll be even more explosive.

Speaking of the "Sproles" factor ... I think TommyLee could fit that role Sean Payton is looking for. I expect to see him a bit more vs the Texans. He has gone from a long shot to a having a legitimate shot at making the final 53 man roster.

After watching the O-line play NE I'm really not all that suprized by the sacks in practice. A must fix. JJ Watts and a stingy Texan D want be playing around.

Rest easy my friend... We've kinda dodged a bullet on that one. JJ Watt is out because of surgery to repair a herniated disc and may miss the first couple games of the season.

I disagree.
Most of the pressure came from good coverage and the QB holding the ball too long. We also didn't have our best offensive lineman. Did the play great? No, but it wasn't that bad.

I just wanna see no injuries.

Now we just gotta get someone to spell Davison (maybe Onyemata?) to keep from burning him out...

Sounds like a keeper to me...

Even Robertson knows what this team needs and what his role is...

Dare I say We may have one of the best receiving corps in the league come next year after some experience?

It'll definitely be the most promising three wide receiver sets in the league...

Still can't believe Da'Vante Harris went undrafted...


jeanpierre 08-14-2016 01:39 PM

Re: PreSeason Week 2: New Orleans Saints @ Houston Texans
 
Atlanta fans have gotta really be questioning, we had to spend our whole draft and a half to get a receiver and they get this guy (Thomas)?!?

It should really suck to be an Atlanta fan this season...

Let's wait and see what Mr. Finnegan does against live competition (Texans).

jeanpierre 08-14-2016 02:34 PM

Re: PreSeason Week 2: New Orleans Saints @ Houston Texans
 
This is where that missed time with Armstead and Peat playing another position was so very important...

Well Andre Johnson is now with the Titans, so there's that...

If they are getting an offensive lineman they need to go ahead and pull the trigger. That's not a position group where you can add a new player and have them fit right in. Even a veteran will need a significant amount of reps with the rest of the guys.

jeanpierre 08-14-2016 03:45 PM

Re: PreSeason Week 2: New Orleans Saints @ Houston Texans
 
Looks like we're gonna have a good rotation among the defensive front four positions...

SDE - Cameron Jordan, Bobby Richardson
DT - Sheldon Rankins, Nick Fairley
NT - Tyeler Davison, John Jenkins and/or David Onyemata
WDE - Kasim Edebali, Obum Gwacham

I could be completely wrong but this could very well be John Jenkins last year down in the Big Easy.

Good Point. But I'm not sure who's got guards as good as what we have that another team is willing, or desperate to part with at this time...

Dude for Dallas is still wanting out.

Rumor is Dallas wants too much, plus he's there swingman on the OL...

With that kind of leverage, we'd have to overpay, unless Romo is injured...

There're other guards, and don't have the injury risk of Ronald Leary...

Good Insight Into Cowboys' Position

If it were me, I'd consider moving a CB or FS (Byrd, re-worked contract or naught) and get with the Rams for Rodger Saffold, who plays four positions...

I won't be surprised if he traded before the season start to Dallas for a OG
