I get it (temporary fix) but what do you do to offset the lack of production from guys not named MT & Kamara? Cook has turned out to be meh in NO ...

Tre is just returning from injury, Kirkwood is on IR and Carr is just out there taking up a roster spot.

Would it hurt to bring Watson in for a look and demote Carr or Humphrey back to the practice squad?

IMO we need another savvy vet (Diggs, E Sanders or player X) down the road. At some point this season or in the playoffs, a good DC will take away our main guy.
