Fall in love with UDFAs
Be surprised they get cut
Stash them on the practice squad
Watch:
a. Another team scoop them up during the season
b. Maybe one of the few practice squad guys end up contributing at some point

Rinse. Lather. Repeat.
Exactly....
 
Do we only have 2 tight ends? Or did we keep Garrett Griffin? Arnold has only gotten better & better. I liked what I saw in Derby. I wish I could of seen more of Mack, but supposedly he wasn’t all that great in practice. Griffin would of been the last guy I would of kept LOL

Who is our backup tackle?

I hope we don’t regret cutting Butler. That kid has talent with a good head on his shoulders. I haven’t been this mad by a cut in a long time...

Yeah? Since what, Boston Scott last year?
 
? I'd think if it was significant injuries, they'd have been IR'd or we'd have kept more players at their positions.
Could be waiting to put one or two of them on IR this week because they have to make it through the cuts if we want to designate them to return.
 
Surprised no Ozigbo or one or the other of Humprey and Butler. We need something after Thomas out of the WR position.
 
He’s a “roster exemption” - so we can carry him as exempt under the commissioner’s exempt rule. I don’t think he can practice but not sure.

#Saints DE Carl Granderson has been reinstated from the commissioner’s exempt list. The alleged incident in his case took place before the draft, so not subject to personal conduct policy. He's cleared to participate in all team activities.
 
I trust the coaching staff and they have made some really great moves, I just have a hard time with them releasing Grayson, Humphries and Butler...it will be a small mirical if they aren’t signed immediately by someone else.
The thing is, we aren't unique in having a bunch of players like this that we hope can slip through to the PS. It's practically the same all over the league.
 
Josh Doctson was cut by the Redskins. Crazy that I wanted him over Michael Thomas back in that draft. He was rated higher than him and is/was a better athlete. He just never did anything with the Skins. I would kick the tires
 
Is he still exempt?

Appears he’s cleared and can join the team. He is in the 53 at this point, it seems.

Saints rookie DE Carl Granderson, who was released from jail by a district judge last week in Wyoming, won't count against the Saints' 53-man roster for the first two weeks. He will return to the team, and they will have that window to decide on his status.
