Kurt Coleman. He is a safety.

You are speaking of Brandon who is out of the league.

We still have a great receiving corp compared to majority of teams. Falcons probably have one of the best. Kamara can run the whole route tree then with MT and Ginnn, there is not much work left. I doubt anyone else gets over 45 targets.

Oh yea, my bad. Still though. I was hoping we would bring him back last year when we got hit with injuries.
I just have a feeling we missed out on a good receiver who will play a long time.

Cutting Ozigbo is short sighted. He would have been the #2 next year and cheap with an upside. Plus, if Kamara or Murray gets nicked, as all RB's do, the Saints have nothing. I would be shocked if the Dolphins don't sign him, Butler and maybe Humphrey. Putting Rankins on the 53 when he could have been left on PUP for the first six weeks is even worse. He's not going to play in the first six weeks Hampton did nothing in preseason. Would have easily made the PS. Wes Horton?

I agree mostly to what you say but the one good thing they done was keep Saquon. My fingers were crossed that they didn't try to slide him to the practice squad

Cutting Ozigbo was a mistake I think.

We’ll find out soon. Three hours until we can sign players to the practice squad.

I’d also like to point out that in order for players to be eligible to return from IR they had to make the 53 man roster first. It’ll be interesting to see if anybody goes on IR today (Robertson, Hampton, etc).

It does appear that way but with our line, down field blocking... just about any ok RB is going to have some success. We made Tim Hightower look magical almost the whole season.

Think he gets on the PS or gets plucked from us. He looked better than Boston Scott I know that much and BS stuck around the league until recently.

"Anyone else notice Boston Scott" didn't make the Eagles?
