Current Saints 53 man roster after cuts

Agree on all levels. I'm happy they're finally correcting the cap issues. My only point is that this is the cost of kicking the can, and it's not just this year. We have paid in the previous couple of seasons as well, but we are slowly getting there.

I think it's more the cost of making bad picks in the draft. That and letting Terron Armstead go.

No matter how you handle the cap, you have got to be good at the draft and the Saints have been pretty average at best in the draft. They have some hits in guys like Olave, Adebo, Breese, Taylor, Perry, and hopefully Fuaga. But, Miller and Saldiveri always being hurt, Penning maybe never developing, and missing on Foskey and Turner has been a major issue.

The Penning miss is huge for the OL. Replace him with even a mid-level Tackle and the OL looks much different. Yes, they would still need to figure out LG, but it's a lot easier to figure that out than RT or LT.
