I don't think they Gamble with Kamara either. Or Williams . Muhammad and Hendrickson maybe. My point is when is the last time we had this many draft picks made the final roster that didn't come back and land on the PS? Not counting last year because there weren't many picks. The year before Tull hit the PS and wound up on IR if I remember right. I don't remember any of those guys showing as much promise as the guys we have this year. |

Re: Saints Rookie Marcus Williams Is Flashing Ball-Hawking Skills At Safety
I think we are seeing the impact of Jeff Ireland. The tide has turned. We are finally turning the corner on a full rebuild. Around two thirds of our coaching staff has been replaced over the last two years. Our scouting staff was overhauled last off-season. We only have one starting defensive player left from two years ago and only two I can think of off the top of my head still on the roster from three years ago. Our offense has only three or four players remaining from our active roster three years ago. Thinking about all of that it is pretty impressive that the Saints have remained competitive and have won at least seven games each year. Most teams that go through a rebuild that complete are hard pressed to win three or four games.
Just another positive step toward success. |

Re: Saints Rookie Marcus Williams Is Flashing Ball-Hawking Skills At Safety
Eat **** *******. I know how practice squad works and I know Payton wouldn't be that stupid. We will see by mid season. I've been hearing "he's gonna be the next Sproles" for years.
We should have just kept Sproles. |

Re: Saints Rookie Marcus Williams Is Flashing Ball-Hawking Skills At Safety
I'm really hoping Hagan's pick is our new starting free safety by season's end; he sure looks the part so far...
have no confidence in Vonn Bell at this point; saying he made Jairus Byrd finally expendable is saying much... Raphael Bush was a better option even if Byrd were healthy; expect Byrd to jump on the "Me Too, Doc" bandwagon... Assuming Vaccaro does earn an extension as a late developer like Ingram, we'll be in great shape moving forward... |
