Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

JP - I know you like the rookie Kirkwood but who are your "locks" at the WR position heading into camp? Do you think Saints will target a another vet WR (Dez) ?

But to answer your question, I have 5 at WR (MT, TG Jr, Tre, Meredith, Coleman). No clue on the RB's. For me, losing Ingram is HUGE. Maybe West (has real NFL game experience) fills that void ? Maybe Sean Payton passes more the first 4 games?

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Yes, I like Kirkwood - alot...

When Kev and I were scouting college football last Fall, we discussed need for a big slot WR (e.g. Colston) so Mike Thomas could be moved for mismatches...

You realize Thomas was the only reliable big receiver (6' 2" +) on the roster last year not a Tight End?

Kev, who lived in the Northeast, said I needed to watch Temple games, even though they're not good; Kirkwood & those contested catches stood out, impressively...

As far as bringing in another WR, why?

Talent? We have is as good as anyone top to bottom with Mike Thomas an elite X and Ginn, who's gotten better (Brees effect), is a threat at the Y...

Cam Meredith will be a plus, plus win at the Z (slot) and can be interchanged with Thomas. So those three would be my sure locks...

Haven't gotten to see much of Tre'Quan Smith, but as a 3rd rounder he's likely the fourth WR. So that leaves one, maybe two...

Payton realized (after having to trade Cooks who's ineffective in posting) that Brees needs big targets on 3rd downs and the redzone to complete drives...

That's where I like Kirkwood, with his great size, reliable hands and catch radius as the No. 5; he can develop, move up when Meredith's deal expires...

Plus KK could be the third big man in the red zone where you could get one-on-one isolation out wide each side with the third in the slot as the hot read...

The 6th WR will have to be a Special Teams Coverage Monster to make the team though as you've got two defensive backs, plus RBs who can return kicks, punts...

Carr, Dural or Tommylee could be that underneath Snead-type that Payton likes on second and long play selections; need to see more on Massington...

Running Back? Ingram, Kamara, Line would be locks (Payton likes a true FB at the goal-line); surprised we didn't give Kuhn another run...

After that I'd keep two (2) more RBs, in order, Boston Scott, Jonathan Williams, Trey Edmunds, Daniel Lasco, Terrance West; maybe a third with Ingram's suspension ...

With Coleman on the PUP list ... who will step in seize an opportunity at WR?

Eldridge Massington
Travin Dural
Austin Carr
Keith Kirkwood
Josh Smith

Side note - I purposely left out Cam Meredith from the list. Unless there is a setback, I think he is a lock to make the 53 man roster.

This verifies what I've been hearing and repeating all along that Meredith would be at 100% by training camp. He is going to be a huge addition to the squad.

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Agreed. Like Okafor last season, it'll be the most underrated, under-the-radar free agent signing in the league...

OFFENSE

Is it possible we could keep as many as ten (10) offensive linemen?

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Run Defense - 27th: Ouch, and why is Kenny V still being shown as a Saint? Would've thought DeMario Davis would boost that ranking...

Pass Rush - 11th; this was a bit higher than I expected, Rankins being shown as a rotational player, not a starter?!? Hmm...

Secondary - 8th; now I find this ranking lower, should be higher IMO compared to the units in front of it - Top 5 unit...

They seem to be pretty serious about Davis playing Will... I wonder where that leaves Anzalone in terms of playing time?

Area of concern for me. If Mad Max ever goes down ...

Re: 2018 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook
 

Flurry of moves today...

In:
RT/RG Don Barclay
WR Michael Floyd
WR Brandon Tate

Out:
WR Travin Dural (IR)

I like the signing of Don Barclay. There really was no-one backing up Warford or Ramczyk. Rick Leonard isn’t playing any time soon and Landon Turner is just a guy. This way Bushrod can back up LT/LG, Barclay can back up RT/RG and one of LeRibeus, Tom and Clapp can be a C/G.
