Saints Waive RB Marcus Murphy

I knew this was only a matter of days. Had a flash or two but severe mental breakdown when he got a real shot. Not even sure how he stuck around this long. Wasted late round pick so meh...it was likely not going to work out from the start but wish him the best. Maybe he returns due to injuries for us or someone later on.

Kamara and Ginn have made both Murphy and Cadet expendable.

Roster shuffles, he might even be back soon

He is actually a decent player. I could see him latching on somewhere but he burnt the bridge here with a real brain freeze moment in time.

I don't know about Cadet but Murphy couldn't hang on to the football. He was a turnover waiting to happen.

Not surprised. We have enough RBs and returners. May have too many still.

One of the easiest ways to get cut at this level. Murphy has talent & good vision but coaches will lose trust quickly when you put the ball on the ground.

I hope he catches on somewhere soon. Fumbling is correctable.

no surprise.

If Lasco can not stay healthy he will be next on the chopping block in 2018

See and the people claiming we won't let SP go are the same people that swore MM would never be let go because of his versatility.

Sorry K, know you were pulling for the guy...

Shame he couldn't play with Sproles; really learn a terrific work ethic and what it takes in commitment to succeed; he's got rare gifts, but he doesn't seem to have the other parts in order...

Cadet is clearly better than Murphy, but having both Kamara and Ginn is just too much overlap and one would expect Cadet to be the odd man out.

What is the SP to which you are referring? I'm kind of confused here.

:confused:

Damin Swann will start on PUP, per source

I will not be surprised if Mr. Swann is eventually cut this season.

Just an FYI but Swann has played in more games the last two seasons that PJ Willimas. If PJ gets hurt are you expecting him to get cut too?

Who is comparing Swann with PJ? I said he could get cut because he could get cut. It appears the Saints have a stable of healthy guys at corner & rookie Arthur Maulet will challenge someone for a roster spot.

This has nothing to do with PJ (dude had a freak concussion that caused him to miss virtually all of 2016).

Still confused about this comment? What does it even mean?

And Swann has had freak concussions too, and PJ missed the entire '15 season as well.

I mean I am hoping PJ balls out from here on out because him, lat, and breaux could be as good as any tandem in the league.

I understand what you're saying, but I am just pointing out that PJ has played in less games than Swann and they were drafted the same year

Good for him. He likely would have stuck around if not for that one brain freeze. That one really pissed off Coach and all of us for that matter. It has to be in the top 10 of bone headed Saints plays of all time.

Yep. Or the people swear there is no reason to be concerned about the offensive line.
