Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Posted by Darin Gantt on September 13, 2017, 1:54 PM EDT
Getty Images The Saints need some offensive line help for the next few weeks, and they’re looking at some experienced options. According to Josh Katzenstein of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, the Saints are working out blockers today, including NFLPA president Eric Winston. The 33-year-old Winston was cut by the Bengals, but could step in quickly in the short term since Zach Strief if going to miss a few weeks with an MCL sprain. Earl Watford (who was in camp with the Jaguars), and Dallas Thomas (Eagles) are also among the workouts. Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston – ProFootballTalk |

Ok, one problem being addressed. Where are the DBs?

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
We're not going to find a good replacement for Strief right now. There aren't anywhere near enough good O-Linemen to start on all 32 teams. We're going to plug in Bryce Harris and it probably won't be a great outcome but what can you do.

Raphael Bush understands zone concepts better. It's frustrating because our safeties go elsewhere and play better, Malcolm Jenkins is an all pro now, Bush played great with the Lions and even Roman Harper grabbed a couple ints with the panthers in 2015. |
Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
I think if you can generate ANY sort of QB pressure, your secondary play will look improved instantly and dramatically.
But now it's regular season and where did it all go? Poor game by DA, and honestly poor communication and recognition at many points by some of the players. |

The Defense was on the field way to long. The Offense needs to help out.

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Until the saints show they can handle rub routes and short crossing routes, they're going to be a lot more 3rd down conversions

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
I'm not against trading our entire draft next year for a good future QB, 2 offensive lineman and 1 great DT

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Is this going to be our Achilles heel?

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Why can't they see if Peat or Ram can play there? And just let Kelemete play LG again? I mean it was the weak part of our oline last year at LG but RT is more important.

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Patience with the run game, with longer, sustained drives that keep our defense off the field...

Re: Saints working out linemen, including Eric Winston
Still say
Peat to LT Ram to RT Siergo to LG I love Armstead at LT vut the saints need to address his on going stints on IR. Take the buy out in 2019? Terron Armstead Potential Out: 2019, 3 yr, $31,321,000; $7,400,000 dead cap If so they need to get a replacement on the roster. I could live with the Saints wheeling and dealing in the draft. I want a 2nd and/or a 3rd so bad right now. R1 - Mike McGlinchey LT/RT Notre Dame 6072 310 5.22 #68 rJr R3 - Troy Fumagalli TE Wisconsin 6054 249 4.84 #81 rSr R3 - Frank Ragnow C/OG,Arkansas 6052 319 5.14 #72 Sr or Keep Armstead R3 - Troy Fumagalli TE Wisconsin 6054 249 4.84 #81 rSr R3 - Frank Ragnow C/OG,Arkansas 6052 319 5.14 #72 Sr R4 - Ike Boettger OT/TE Iowa 6046 307 5.02 #75 rSr R5 - Spain Bentley OT/OG N Carolina 6056 300 5.04 #75 Sr Boy would saints nation go bonkers lol besides the season is still young to jump off the cliff |
