Final 53

QB - Brees, Bridgewater, Hill
RB - Kamara, Murray, Washington, Ozigbo
FB - Line
WR - Thomas, Smith, Ginn, Carr, Butler, Harris
TE - Cook, Hill, Arnold
OT - Armstead, Ramczyk, Ola
OG - Peat, Warford, Clapp, Tom
C - McCoy, Easton

K - Lutz
P - Morstead
LS - Wood

DE - Jordan, Davenport, Hendrickson, Edwards
DT - Onyemata, Brown, Stallworth, Williams
LB - Anzalone, Davis, Klein, Robertson, Ellis, Biegel
CB - Lattimore, Apple, Williams, Crawley, Hardee
S - Bell, Williams, Gardner-Johnson, Gray, Banjo

Mack, Hampton, Grayson, Gustin, Tuttle, Greenidge, Kaufusi and Kelly to the PS.

-The health of Robertson and Biegel could shake that up.
-Ola and Easton aren't locks. Neither are good.
-I think they roll the dice with Butler over Kirkwood. Kirkwood has been injured and looks to have peaked. Butler has a larger upside.
-Harris is not a lock but he could be that x factor that wins a game or two.
-Haven't seen enough from Mack or Hampton to be worthy of a roster spot.
-Never cared for Robinson. He played well in Philly's magical season. That's it. Crawley can cover outside better and Hardee is a special teams ace.
-Would like to see Humphrey make the PS but I think someone like Houston, Tennessee or Miami will take a chance on him.
-Derby deserves to make the team but they will stick with Arnold.

Re: Final 53

^^ No interest in developing Jordan Humphrey/Simmie Cobbs? Or do you assume he'll be poached by another teams practice squad?

An embarrassment of riches makes them PS candidates.

Not sure Ginn makes the cut this year.

Savvy vet Ted Ginn cut ? Who replaces him Smash? A unproven, undrafted WR? He missed 7+ games last year, came back clutch late in the season and into the playoffs. Outside of Mike and JCook, there is no safety net to run precise routes, separate and make plays consistently.

I just don't see how he's cut ... not this year.

The Saints won't take that type of leap this year. Ginn is proven. He's reliable. He's a big play guy. Smith and Kirkwood flashed last year. Then, they disappeared. The young guys don't have to be great. But, they have to be consistent. I mean, it's going to be Thomas, Kamara and Cook seeing 75 percent of the targets.

I love Humphrey. I think the staff loves Butler. Cobbs is NFL average at best. He can find a roster spot in the NFL. Just not with the Saints.

Re: Final 53

Only 3 RB make the final roster. Ozig to PS
Lose a G, add a LB (fear of C Robinson injury)
I want Patrick Robinson on the roster instead of Crawley (and don't forget we signed K Webster)

-Ozigo makes the 53.
-I can lose Easton because he has played poorly. But, he's versatile.
-I could see one of the LB's going to IR. I don't feel Jumper or the rest on the roster are worthy of a roster spot.
-It was a small sample, but the Saints played better after Robinson got hurt. He's shown me nothing to reverse my opinion of his play.
-If Lattimore or Apple goes down, Crawley is the best on the roster to fill in on the outside.
-Webster = Camp body.

I don't think the Wizard of Oz would ever make it to the PS.

Re: Final 53

Payton loves guys who can catch out of the backfield. Ozigbo does that really well.
