Report: Saints to work out RB Travaris Cadet, who's had 2 stints in New Orleans

Payton is weighing familiarization over talent so I get it.

Still not giving him a pass on cutting Ozigbo. That was a dumb move. The dumber move however is the Jags letting him collect dust. For what? He's 4th on their depth chart. Makes no sense. Bet he gets cut when Blue returns.

Well said.

AK must be down...bad timing

TC is torrible. But he knows the playbook and can be inserted quickly

As pointed out a couple of times, Cadet is familiar with our offense. He has been in the league 10 years and had a total of 60 carries so I am guessing he has pretty fresh legs. He also hasnt fumbled in his last 38 carries/4 years but I am not sure how to read that... lol

I suspect as we get closer to Brees's return we should see more of Hill running and with Kamara dinged this week might be a Hill showcase week.

I always liked Khiry Robinson as a RB but I doubt he gets the call.

IIRC the Saints brought in Zach Zenner for a "work out" several months back. Did he get picked up?

... well at least we still have Murray and Washington.

Jacquizz Rodgers did ok as a pass catching back in the preseason.

The trade deadline is approaching. Maybe a Kenyan Drake or go pay the Jags ransom for Ozigbo if they entertain it.

Both are solid pass catchers. I can't think of any other scenarios that would be better than those two right now but sure there are some.

I don't get the excitement over Ozigbo. He has done absolutely nothing in the NFL. Has never even been active. He wasn't able to make the 53 man roster cut for the Saints.

True, but he is familiar with the playbook and schemes. Blue will be back week 9 so he may get cut? I know he didn't make the roster for us but it was close. Wasn't he on the practice squad? Can't recall.
