An impressive play by Davenport, smart use of using his length to close the play...

I don't like Trey Hendrickson starting at RDE....He can't stop the run....he was getting blocked by TE's too many times maybe he's better off as a 3rd down rusher

-Brees, Kamara, Thomas, Watson, the OL, and T. Smith are ready.
-Carr makes the squad and will contribute big.
-Scott makes the squad easily and will at least contribute in the return game.
-Savage is good getting the ball out quickly. Otherwise not.
-Hill is good at the RPO. Otherwise less so.
-Saints will be watching the cuts at that position.
-Understandably, Meredith just isn't ready yet.
-Lattimore, Crawley, Jordan, Williams, and Onyemata are ready.
-A Bell sighting. Great to see.
-How do you keep Robertson out of the lineup? Dude is always making plays.
-Very good first showing by Davenport. Big, quick, strong and instinctive.
-Stallworth and Lawrence MAKE PLAYS and are always active.
-Don't get the Davison love. Never pushes the pocket. Never makes tackles. If he's eating blockers, then the LB's aren't doing their job either because the defense always gets gashed with him in.
-Don't see anything from Rankins either. Just doesn't pass the eye test. Hopefully, it's just the preseason.

-Notable cuts: Barrett, Bromley, Floyd, Hoomanawanui, Johnson, Kikaha, Muhammad, Tate, Tiller, and Turner.

Cruize, you make a fantastic point.

Why does it seem like Payton thinks Craig Robertson is not good enough to be a starter?

People used to say that no one could beat Scott Shanle out of his position, that was worrying. Now we have Craig Robertson who I believe is our most complete LB since Vilma and Payton continually demotes him to second string....

Honestly, name a more versatile and complete LB on our roster currently, Craig Robertson is the best we have.

IIRC, Craig was in with the 3's on sat. Head scratcher for me .

I don't like the rotation at LB'er. We should be done experimenting and we should be refining our technique. #53 is not a play maker. #52 is and #56 looks great.
