this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Which TE do you get rid of........ :shrug: the often held/interfered with (at least in his own mind) Boo Williams, or Ernie Conwell? I am not putting Hilton on this because there is no way in heck that you can ...

IMO Hall or Conwell will be the odd man out. The team still thinks Boo can be a 50 catch TE every year. It\'s a possibility that Shad Meier will win the starting TE position if he has a good preseason. He is a very good all-around TE who will fit very well into our offense. Still early.

A friend of mines today told me that they were shopping Boo Williams around to see if they had any interest in him around the league. I don\'t know if he was making it up or true... but we do know someone is getting cut or traded out of Conwell and Williams.

Apparantly, the team isn\'t quite as high on Boo as some may think....

He IS bieng shopped around...

And..Miami has shown interest in T jones on a side note...Sources say...If a deal isn\'t struck by Monday..he will likely be cut...


Oh yeah..Here\'s the Link...

I really do hope they can get a quality replacement for Williams IF this thing happens...

Conwell is just not, in my personal opinion, starter quality anymore...I saw with my own eyes, him getting pushed on his A$$ time and time again last year when he was suppose to be blocking...

Meier may or may not be the guy we need..in 4 years in the NFL, each of those with the Titans...He has only caught 42 passes in his carreer..with an 8 ypc average,...and since I do not watch Tennessee very often at all, I can\'t comment on his blocking..

He is 6\'4\'\' 255lbs...pretty good build... We\'ll see how he does...

With the ball control system they are implementing, Meier seems like a pretty good fit for what they are trying to do. I hope we can obtain a 5th rounder for Boo because he guy is serviceable. Someone also told me Dallas is seriously looking at Howard for their lower 1st rounder. What didn\'t make sense to me is when he said they would also take Tebucky in the trade too... which really didn\'t make sense. But hey, things happen and it would be great for us if they did.

Hell everyone is expendable in my opinion. I don\'t think Boo is going anywheres. Boo is like a HUGE WR out there, just this past year he didn\'t catch like one. He sacrafices to make a catch though. I think they are disappointed due to the fact they had high hopes on the dynamic TE duo and it never really happened. Conwell seems expendable.

if hall is on the way out then why did they resign him a couple of weeks ago? they could have just left him on the market if they didn\'t want him...

Hey Chris post me a link showing that they resigned Hall two or three weeks ago and I will believe you , but I don\'t find that signing anywhere. I see that they signed Meier from the Titans a couple of days ago and that\'s why I agreed with Euphoria. It really does\'nt matter if they signed him or not players are cut everyday that have contracts.

Hall is an unrestriced FA, so for the most part he is gone already. As of right now I see Meier coming in to back up Williams and Cronwell.
