Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Can someone even challenge Zach Streif at the RT position this year? He can't play forever.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

JP remember big Jon Stinchcomb was strong right up until he retired. When Zach looses it, it will happen all of a sudden.

I hope the Saints FO add 1 or 2 linemen in next month's draft.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Major, right now, we have the best three (3) tackle rotation in the league...

And then you have Senio who can even step in when needed...

The plan seems to be if either tackle goes down, Peat kicks out and Senio goes in at LG...

But I'd love to have reserves at each of the five line positions, but this has been a neglected roster until recently...

Bad FA signings and combining draft picks too frequently, it's discouraging from a personnel management standpoint...

It's getting better, but still frustrating...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Now if Armstead and the rest of the line could stay healthy...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Of all the weird things. A buddy of mine was fighting that and it got to the point of his only option being the bag. He really didn't want that so he started intensely researching it on his own. Somehow he came up with cigarettes of all things. Apparently, the carbon monoxide molecules bond with something at the core cause of UC. He smokes five cigarettes a day and exercises like a fool. Been doing this for a decade now, no bag and is able to deal with on a daily basis now. Crazy huh?

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Really surprised we haven't brought in a veteran tackle yet...

Fullington played Tackle as well as Guard at Washington St...

Peat is usually ready-up at Tackle with Senio taking Peat's guard spot when Peat kicks outside...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

So we'll only have three veteran quarterbacks in camp afterall...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

I'd be concerned if he would "just be happy to be here"

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Anyone hear any recent news/updates on PJ? If he is 100% healthy, it's almost like having an extra draft pick.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Ah yes, the Loch Ness Cornerback lol. I saw a story recently that he was in Africa with a few other players on safari so he must be 100%.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

The TE slots have become very crowded. Who will emerge (outside of Fleener) ? I really like how it's shaping up on paper at the safety position(s).

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Was really surprised Josh Hill even came back last season; really like his game...

Michael Hoomanawanui seems done, he's been on IR for how many seasons between NE and NO?

Phillips, Stoneburner (as opposed to former Saint Linebacker Steve Stonebreaker), and Griffin all offer something with Griffin also a LS...

I'd like to go up and spend a pick on Adam Shaheen, guy's a beast; late bloomer; expected to go in second/third round...

I'd take Shaheen and Hansen with the third round picks, if the Saints could stand it...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

I've seen you mention his name a couple of times. He must be the truth ;).

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

How much time, energy we spent in signing him? When we could have gotten our other DE (Cameron Wake) last year?

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Sure wish the Saints would sneak in and sign DE Bryan Braman, 6' 5", 246 lbs...

Guy is a Special Teams Ranger, and would provide very affordable depth behind Alex Okafor...

We also could use another offensive tackle that's not already playing guard (Andrus Peat)...
