Was just wondering the same thing.....we need WR depth

Heck with these free agents, sign someone off the practice squad and keep it moving.

Just heard that it's an Achilles injury...

Sorry for his bad luck, injury...

Think Someone's trying to tell us to promote Kirkwood...

That's really bad luck right there.

This is extremely unfortunate. I feel really bad for Dez right now. That said, I kinda feel like we got ripped off. We were all excited for two whole days... Now, he's probably out for the season.

If healthy, I wouldn't rule out Brandon Coleman. He's played in this complex offense, knows the plays & Sean Payton stated earlier this season that he wouldn't rule out his return at some point if he returns to 100% good health.

Damn, really tough luck on Dez. I feel bad for him.

Terrible run of luck... probably not in “football shape”

All I can really say about this situation is LMFAO

That’s what I am saying. Hell I think we should sign him for his blocking alone

I'm not laughing at the guy. Just st the bad luck. Obviously, not meant to be.

It amazes me that people still don't understand why Le'veon Bell is holding out.

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
LOL you can’t make this stuff up. Incredible. Like K Major said, maybe bring back Brandon Coleman. Maybe promote Kirkwood.

Why is losing a potential key contributor to a Super Bowl run funny to you? Exactly.

I just hope this doesn't screw with team morale for the Bengals game.

In his defense, I laughed too. Not because of the injury, but because of the absurdity of it all.

I wonder if recently retired Eric Decker could be a possibility.

saintsfan1976 11-09-2018 05:49 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
After placing Meredith on IR either either retreads or Kirkwood

K Major 11-09-2018 06:03 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
Saints offense is still one if not THE best offense in the league. Is losing Dez a tad disappointing? Hell yeah. Are we in trouble? No. This offense was winning before he stepped in NO.

Can't miss what we never had. Someone will step up.

Next man up.

frydaddy 11-09-2018 06:17 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
While I didn't necessarily agree with the signing, I still hate to see it happen. I feel really bad for him and I hope that somehow he heals up quickly and completely and he's able to get another shot somewhere next year. He at least deserves to be able to go out on his own terms. Prayers and best wishes to you Dez.

Next up... Brandon Marshall.

This might end his career. This really sucks.

nola_swammi 11-09-2018 07:25 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
Why not Brandon Coleman?

rezburna 11-09-2018 07:29 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
Brandon Coleman had years to prove himself to be a red zone target and a 3rd down converter. He never did it. Take a chance on Kirkwood or sign Brandon Marshall.

I'd like to see Kirkwood get the call up. Marshall will probably still be out there in a few weeks if it doesn't work out. Let's see what the young guy's got.

Dez Bryant diagnosed with torn Achilles, will get MRI - NFL.com

Well look what happened when peterson left. Maybe we will get production from a backup receiver now?

What a kick in the nards for Dez. Sad.

What a bust..... we need secondary studs.... wasted trade, we did not need him at all. Secondary will continue to suck

We didn't trade for him. Signed as a free agent.

K Major 11-09-2018 08:29 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
If I had an option, I'd bring in Marshall. Kirkwood needs more development and is an unknown. You don't want to rely on that heading to the playoffs with someone with zero snaps at this level.

Win now mode? Get a proven player like Brandon Marshall + he is in football shape (has played this season). He's older but you know Brees has a way of making guys productive.

WillSaints81 11-09-2018 08:29 PM

Re: Dez Injured at practice.
 
We should go after Marshall. He may not have the deep threat speed Dez has, but he's better in the short passing. And Marshall played for an offense last year that still isn't doing anything.

We lack depth, sign Marshall and let him and Kirkwood compete. You don’t want to wait until you need a receiver in a Sean Layton offense. You want your need to be up to speeed before he is a need. :saintsfan:

Talk about a gut shot...feel bad for Dez, nobody deserves that
