At least we got a 7th back for Lawrence.
Gotta love the Browns

Lol That surprised the hell out of me, until I saw it was the browns. I thought there's no way someone would give up a pick for an unproven and formerly undrafted player. But then there's the browns. God bless em.

Maulet and Hardee simply outplayed Jamerson. Moore was a long shot and a wasted pick. Davenport is legit. Smith is legit. Scott is legit. Clapp outplayed some veterans and must be legit. Leonard was a project and hopefully will make the 53 next year. Solid draft.

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.

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

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.

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

Here is a quick read on Gray. 6 foot, listed as a hybrid LB/hybrid safety. Fast, strong & can play the 6th slot at linebacker (played LB @ Miss St). Maybe he outplayed Stupar on special teams, no?

Maybe Major, but do you remember a stand-out play in the PreSeason from Gray?!?

I liked that we snag him for nothing outta State, but I hadn't seen anything that jumped out like Stupar...

Payton's comments knocking back at Stupar's outstanding play against the Rams has now led me to believe that Payton didn't want Stupar no matter what he'd done...
