Liking our moves...but

Not Victor? Any guesses as to why? Surely there's room or we can make room.

Because we already have five (5) RBs on the active roster already not counting the FB Kuhn and there are only ten spots; basically trying to round out scout teams...

We're trying to sign positions that may be thing on the active roster (e.g. QB, WR, OL, TE, LB) in the event of, well, that word which shall not be said...

If someone like Maulet or Victor is signed, I wouldn't be surprised if the Saints are getting inquiries about another player > protection for depth...

Good. I really like this guy's potential. He can become a real mauler with his size, strength...

2017 NEW ORLEANS SAINTS PRACTICE SQUAD

QB 00 - Taysom Hill (UDFA 2017 GB)

WR 14 - Travin Dural (UDFA 2017 NO)

LG 77 - John Fullington (UDFA 2014 GB, SF, AZ, 2015 FA AZ, 2016 FA NO)

C 63 - Cameron Tom (UDFA 2017 NO)

RG 62- Kristjan Sokoli (2015, R6/214 SEA, 2016 FA IND)

TE 45 - Garrett Griffin (UDFA 2016 NO)

SR 00 - Austin Carr (2017 UDFA NE)


DEFENSE

DE 74 - Alex Jenkins (European Exemption)

LB 99 - Adam Bighill (2017 FA CFL)

CB 37 - Arthur Maulet (2017 UDFA NO)


That's nine (9) plus the EU Roster Exemption; one more...and then more roster moves, tweaking...

Taysom Hill and Austin Carr go straight to the 53 man roster. We'll have to make corresponding moves to make space like putting Breaux on IR.

Is Taysom Hill better than Cooper Rush?

Austin Carr looked great here in new england.

Gotta love Adam Bighill - Looks like he's got a backup career path as well...

Payton punked GB by showing interest in Joe Callahan last year. GB got him back and cut him again thinking the Saints would pick him up! Gotcha McCarthy!!

jeanpierre 09-03-2017 07:03 PM

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Practice Squad
 
Hmm...Now this is interesting...Guess Payton got a McCaffrey after all...

You're correct, but the initial information, notices were that they were PS additions; should've realized it, made corrections, adjustments...

Del Breaux to be put on Reserve/Injured to Return will need to wait one more day, then we bring back Kuhn...

We still have one roster spot open and I'm pulling, praying for Justin Zimmer to come back and work with Nielsen...

If he can be half as good as Ed we got ourselves a gem.

Max McCaffrey WR/KR Duke 6020 196 4.46 #87 Sr

another solid snag.

The Saints front office obviously knows that the depth on O-line is pitiful. If this is our best option.....then so be it. Watch us draft on O-lineman early next year to solidify the depth. We look good on paper until one starter goes down then the whole line goes to ****. We have to get better depth on the O-line desperately. Unger isn't getting any younger and he still looked hobbled Thursday.

Wish Payton would geaux and get Moritz Böhringer and bring him onto our PS...

Good, Glad the Chargers got 'em; they're already down one of their two guards they just drafted to finally give Rivers some protection...
