Zach Hilton to start tonight

Zach Hilton, TE NO

News: The Times-Picayune reports TE Zach Hilton has looked great in camp thus far and will start for the Saints in their first preseason game. He made three red-zone touchdown catches in drills yesterday and has done a nice job subbing for Ernie Conwell (groin).

Analysis: He may be in a battle with Boo Williams and Shad Meier (and maybe Conwell) for playing time. If he makes the starting lineup, he could be a nice No. 2 Fantasy tight end.

got that off NFL.com fantasy football league updates. Damn Boo. You don't even get the start with conwell out?

It'll be nice to see what he does against starters of another team. At the end of it all, this guy may actually be our starter.

It's about time. Now all we have to do is make it to the Red Zone and throw to the giraffe.

Dats right saintuary!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think that is the funniest thing I have heard all day.... You may have coined his new nickname on the board.............. Giraffe!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been saing since last preseason, he is our best option as far as a receiving tight end, and now they say the Giraffe done learned himself how to block.......... I am verry interested to watch him game!!!!!!!!

The way things have been going injury wise lately. I'm thrilled we have a tight end to start.

Yeah but Conwell and Meir will be around for us this Season........ They aint hurt bad.... it is Allen, I am worried about, I wanted the starting 3 Lb's from the famous 4 game stretch to be lining up together at carolina, but his knee is making him miss alot......... as far as conwell is concerned he can miss he knows his stuff, but Meir, better get healthy soon if he wants to play. P.S. I hope we don't Miss John stinchcomb to much this year, stay healthy Gandy... lol
