Re: Check Out Saints' Initial 53-Man Roster
Williams surprised me. Bushrod over over Kelemete probably because he can play tackle. Gray must be really good on special teams. Overall I’m psyched about roster. Who Dat !?!

Re: Check Out Saints' Initial 53-Man Roster
This is a solid lineup! I don't really understand Austin Carr still getting a spot, and I'm a little worried about tackle just because of the durability issues for a few guys. And I don't remember seeing JT Grey at all, but I trust the staff to make the right choices.

Maybe Gray can get down field a full second faster than Stupar? There's definitely a reason behind these roster spots, even if we can't see it. |

The three year rebuild is close to being over. There are going to be quality players losing their roster spots (permanent or not) that come as a surprise to those of us without access to the total picture. I choose to trust the process. |

Re: Check Out Saints' Initial 53-Man Roster
I didn't like Bushrod when he was here before and he looked bad to my untrained eyes playing this preseason. He scares the Hell out of me and I hope that he never sees the field. The other two have room to grow and hopefully they will learn in the film room and practice field before being thrown into the fire playing in a game.
