Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers

Let him rest 2 more weeks and hopefully he will be ready against the kittens after the bye!

Don't hold your breath :brood:.

This guy gets paid to soak. I guess it's a good gig if you can get it.

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

He will be IR'ed or released soon...

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

He and Bryd will likely be the first cuts this offseason.

I like Ellerbe but this organization keeps showing how poorly managed it is. We cut Lewis because he couldn't get healthy, yet we let Ellerbe sit on pretend IR for 2 years... We would probably enjoy having Lewis right now.

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

Byrd was constantly injured too, the organisation stuck with him yet they let CJ Spiller go when he finally gets healthy.

Zero consistency by the organisation.

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

I think the lack of consistency that you're talking about probably has more to do with depth. But I do agree Byrd needs to go.

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

Have got to change the culture in this team - soft and unmotivated.

Guys making millions to soak is the problem and a great point.

Re: Ellerbe downgraded to "out" vs. Chargers
 

Let's not forget we cut Westbank (Lewis) because he wasn't "available."

Aside from Byrd, who's been less "available" than Dannell Ellerbe?

There's definitely some inconsistency from the Saints front office.

Are we surprised the team may no longer be "heeding the call to arms" on Sundays?
