"I just told myself the whole time, keep your hands inside, don't hold this guy," Hill said. "He lunged for Alvin, and I just gave him a little shove."
See that's a smart player.

Hill had a crucial block on the two point conversion. Created just enough space for Kamara to get in.

The fleeting Fleener strike again. Still not worth the cap space next year

But this year draft and FA is not exactly full of split TEs.

Rather a bigger built WR that can block

$8 million on roster. $4.8 dead cap if moved, $3.2 million cap savings.

Now the ball's rollin' (so to speak), he still has time and opportunity to start earnin' it.

I don't hate Fleener. He's a slightly above average pass catching TE that has been given way too much money for his production. Over the years of watching the Saints, I know that Brees loves to throw to his TEs... and I just don't think that Fleener is up to the Saints' standards at TE as the position is a very, very important one for how Payton and Brees like to run the offense.

We haven't been using our TEs anywhere near how we used to in the JG era. I just think it is a different offensive game plan, now that we have a run game and a D.

Don't think people hate Fleener, but it's kinda the same deal with drafting Mark Ingram...

There was so, so much invest and so little return...Ingram has finally developed into a complete Pro-Set RB...

Fleener is finally getting to the point where you can start to take chances on him in must-have drives...

If Fleener can continue what he did against Washington, then he'll become a quick fan favorite...

Well, Graham was a special player, too, at that time; he's actually starting to have a bit of a renaissance with Seattle...

Wasn't that throw to the TE a bunch part of the game plan called the seven and nine?
