Re: Saints Sign WR Michael Floyd
Don't forget we have a 90 man roster and just lost one WR (Dural) to injury. It only makes sense that we bring in another. You can't run drills without enough bodies at each position. Someone stated we have "five receivers" and they couldn't understand why we would need more. We actually have ten receivers, including Coleman still on PUP, before Floyd. That's about right for training camp.

But again, I don't think either of these guys will stick. |

Re: Saints Sign WR Michael Floyd
Maybe Coleman’s injury is worse than we thought?

Re: Saints Sign WR Michael Floyd
I think Brandon Tate actually has a better shot at making the roster than Michael Floyd thanks to the kick return experience.

Definitely something to keep an eye on in upcoming pre season games ... starting next week. |

I just listened to his live interview a few minutes ago with Bruce Murray and Phil Savage on their visit to Saints training camp and he said the same thing.
It isn't that he's not pleased with the return game, it's that it's difficult to pick the right returner(s) with so many good choices. |
