J.T. Gray did not out play Jamerson nor did he outplay him in S.T. That was just a mistake or personal choice to cut Jamerson. It also could be a ploy to be able to convince more undrafted free agents to consider signing here. I don't know the real reason but Jamerson should've made the 53. Luckily, this decision don't harm us in the long run with the depth we do have

We can have no idea of why any given player doesn't make the cut. It could be attitude or classroom related. Either of which would be completely unknown to the fan base and even media.

True but it most likely has to do with the needs at positions. What you say is also a major factor we don't get to see behind the scenes.

All were except for good ol RL waste of pick, waste of PS spot

Dude, your points lose credibility as you defended the Leonard selection and told people they didn't know what they were talking about. Eat that crow. Yummy, delicious and nutritious

Jamerson didn't last long on the market, did he. Kid did good for us. Mistake

Leonard is still a Saint. He may still develop into solid player. The majority of ALL draft picks can be deemed "wasted" as most do not make the original 53 man roster. Only time will tell.

Yes they cannot admit their mistake just yet. Landon Turner was undrafted and spent a few seasons making the practice squad too, what's your point? The rest were gobbled up by other teams...not good ol Rick. You came on here, as you always do, telling people with legit concerns (that the draft pick made no sense because he was considered 7th round or not drafted) that they didn't know what they're talking about. It is near the same thing you say on damn near every post. People are here to espouse their opinions on the team. To discuss the decisions by the team. Guess what, news for you, we we're all right that his pick in that round was undeserved.

Now on to the next wait and see, how long until Sed Ellis brother, shankins, is with the team.

And btw just because we critize doesn't mean we don't all hope their super stars, of course we do. We are even happy to be wrong when the team improves as a result.

Doesn't make me feel better. I think dude is not going to be any good, but if he is I'll be happy for it
