I'm more worried about our lack of size - you got a rookie in Thomas that's 6' 3" and what, Coleman?!?

Redzone or trying to convert to run out the clock, you really want to throw to Coleman with the game on the line?

And if the apologists throw in Fleener, let Mullet prove he can make the grab when it counts, not garbage time...

I love our first three, but we have nothing after them...

Agree with Fleener.
Thought it was a strange pick up with his drop issues. Fleener + Spiller salary = Elite Guard.


Do you think Khun was partly brought in for Red Zone targets?

He was pretty good from what i remeber at the Packers

Lee, Kuhn wasn't brought in until Austin Johnson was injured and out for nearly two weeks...

And the Saints staff love 'em or they wouldn't have brought him onto the practice squad...

Johnson is a throwback as he played running back and linebacker at RockyTop U so he's valuable in the kicking game as well...

I'd bet that with Kuhn's age, Johnson will be back by next season and our starting fullback again...

We're golden at running back...

Offensive guard and wide receiver depth are concerns...
