late week cut- always easy to bring back
expect he'll resign next week and then we cut the 3rd Qb

Probably, but I'm hearing we really really love Edmunds.

And Lasco is still eligible for the PS.

I figured they would want Lasco's special teams play more than Edmunds as a 4th stringer who doesn't have the same impact on ST. I realize they do a lot of pointless shuffling of the roster, but this directly affects our coverage team if Lasco's not out there this week. Whatever, I guess.

They'll probably bring him back and waive him again three more times before the week is over, knowing them.

Didn't take Edmunds long to secure the #4 spot. I look for Edmunds to have a really good year if one of the 3 go down. I love his vision and running style.

I do too, but the experts pointed to his exceptional special teams play as the reason he made this team.

The combo of shining as a RB as well as excelling at ST's made it a no brainer for the staff to keep him as a 4th RB.

What did he do on special teams? I don't recall seeing him do anything there, but I sure have seen it from Lasco. Sometimes it seems like the Saints just say things to make themselves feel better about their decisions.

If not, there must be a big difference in what Edmunds does in practice vs. what I saw of him in games. I do prefer him as a runner over Lasco, any day. Just a bit surprised they think he's better than Lasco on special teams.

Also if your not on week 1 53 man roster contract not guaranteed for full season.
