Wow... Deflating for some people here.

Wow ESPN even had the headline up that we were signing Hunt.

He might be going to compare numbers with the colts since they are more desperate for a RB it seems. The lines of powder on Irsays desk could send him back to New Orleans tho

Never seen so many people get so sour about signing good depth at really Shakey positions.

Well, next you'll get to see people getting really sour about *not* signing depth at said positions.

Both are bonus signings anyway. We have 2 good backs. 3 after week 3. Barr is solid but not great anymore like the Viking days

Russini not too accurate without Payton here I see.

Espn is fake news

Both likely waiting things out for better than vet minimum contracts. An injury somewhere else likely gets them more money. Feels like both or one may sign elsewhere before it's all said and done.

Keep in mind Jimmy signed a vet minimum, shows he wanted to be here vs cashing in on more money.

Welcome to the world of today's so called "journalism." They just want to be the first to say; "I reported it," regardless of if there's any validity to it or not. And if the story's inaccurate, no big deal, just move on to the next one. They're almost never held accountable anyway.

We likely didn't offer much. Both left without deals. I'd be surprised if we actually sign either as their playing time here would be limited.

So she doing damage control. How do you go from reporting it as a done deal if they pass a physical to he got offered more money before he even stepped on the field to work out for the Saints and was advised take the visit.
