Everything I hear about Ellis is really good. All of our camp beasts were quiet.

Hope to see more reps from Kaden.

With the absence of Anzalone and Craig, hopefully he plays a lot in p/s games 3 & 4.

I watched Elliss play quite a few games in Utah. He was good but I never once thought "that guy's gonna be playing on Sundays". When the Saints drafted him, I thought we threw away a pick, there's no way he makes the roster.

Looks like I was wrong. So much for a career as an NFL scout.

I’m gonna say it again never heard a 7th rd picks name called so many times. Either he’s special or he was the only one on the field . Ok maybe Marcus Colston had his called a few.

Stats on Sunday for Kaden ...

6 tackles, 4 solo.

Keep grinding.

You have to be correct to be an NFL Scout? "I'm standing here beside myself!!"

Kaden & Austin are my 2 picks this season that I'm rooting for to make the team. Neither one of these guys are naturally athletically superior at their position, but they both bring that intangible spark of heart & effort into what they do. And sometimes that's enough to be better than the guy across the scrimmage line in front of you.

Rookie made some mistakes, but he got invaluable opportunity of extended playing time - made the same difference for Mr. Marcus his rookie season...

And the Saints staff got an extended look at him because decisions are gonna have to be made re: Robertson next off-season and consideration of extensions for Anzalone, Klein, Biegel...
