Before they've even seen him in a team activity? Washington is a bad test away from a year long suspension. Maybe a look after the first round of OTA's, but before then you don't know what you are tossing.

I'd roll the dice on Washington before an UDFA.

But you are not part of the Saints' front office and inner circle. You have no idea of their degree of tolerance, nor their degree of expectations of their signed players at this point.

Why did Arizona cut him over their 90 players on roster? Think about that? Maybe they saw him as done in the NFL and they know him FAR better than the Saints ... or you.

We're talking about what we would do and what we think the Saints should do, not what they'll actually do. If I worked for the Saints front office I'd roll the dice on him. Arizona might have cut him because they're comfortable at Linebacker with Buchannon and Reddick. We can't really say the same even with the new additions to the team. I don't proclaim to have any intel or insight on the thoughts of front offices around the league, I'm just not of the mindset of seeing an UDFA having more value than a Pro Bowler with some baggage when it comes to a 90 man roster.
