Rapoport: Saints Cutting John Jenkins Today [not claimed on waivers] (1 Viewer)

Oh yeah. He exists, doesn't he?

 

[JackDiesel]

There goes any concern I had he'd be re-signed in the offseason.

 

[AARPSaint]

Well, he was large, but not in charge.

Rankins, Davison, Fairley...hmm...seems like enough interior defensive linemen.

Onyemata also

We are light with our interior linemen. Onyemata, Fairley and Rankins are all around 300 lbs. Only Davison is over 310 lbs. I wonder how this is going to affect our strategy stopping the run.

By my count, we've waived 3 players this week and signed only 1 (a TE). Any ideas on who the other 2 will be? Will they come from the churn or somebody else new?

What's the difference, Jenkins couldn't stop the run anyway. Can you image someone that big not being able to stop the run?

Please no more defensive lineman named John from Georgia.

You cant stop the run with 300lb guys? they have to be 350lbs? The Saints have a more penetrating defensive line now with the talent in the interior with Fairly, Rankins, Davison, Oneymata, Jenkins to me was for the 3-4 defense we thought we were building when we got Rob Ryan and he got phased out and ofcourse had his ups and down as a pro with the Saints.

Onyemata also

Thank you for the correction! Looking at Guillermo's post, there is some concern about not having a mammoth NT now. Maybe they have someone in mind from tryouts, the practice squad, or the waiver wire. Any anyone who suggests Walter Thomas gets an automatic infraction. Just kidding about that.

Didnt we trade chris ivory( for 4th rd) to get him

Don't forget Onyemata

Fairley, Rankins, Davison, Onyemata, Mabry on the PS. I think we're good. Jenkins was awful other than his rookie season.
