... until 3 pm CST today

If they haven't traded him by that point, they have to keep him or cut him.

So just to be clear and make sure I’m fully understanding this situation, this player is in a super-unique position in which he will either make a team, be released, or get traded. Got it.

Wild times.

Good teams don't keep 2 place kickers on their 53 man roster.

Smyth likely ends up on the PS with the International Player exemption.

Beyond that, Payton is solid as your #4 DE. Foskey? I'd cut him, but that still could happen.

Payton's health history is why they may keep a 5th DE.

 

[MudvilleStomper]

looks like they are cutting the entire team that played vs TENN. (less Ratt and Jake)

Ratt!!!

Out on the street, that's where we'll meet...

 

[Artifactual]

Abram is a surprise, I figured he was in talks to start

Amadi, Bradford, and now Abram.

It looks as though the Saints initial 53-man roster will include only 4 Safeties: Mathieu, Harris, Howden, and Gray

 

[MikeyF]

you didn't ask about Miller, just Saldeveri

He is part of the original conversation...

 

[St. Widge]

30 picks, but it crosses from round 3 to 4, that's the difference. Check the draft pick trade value of a 3rd round pick vs a 4th round pick.

I mean, I'm not sure what difference the round makes other than it is used to reset to the draft order. The draft value chart, which is only a guideline, really relies of the value of each individual pick, not the round. Anyway, the actual value of a pick really depends on the depth of each particular draft.

Agreed. I'm just not sure that 5th guy should be Foskey.

And not all drafts have an equal distribution of talent. Some are loaded, some are barren and most are somewhere in between,

Yep. Even first round picks have different value based on the strength of the draft. Some drafts have 35 guys with 1st round grades others have 15 guys with 1st round grades. And the same goes for each round after that.

And the worst part is that all those grades will be different for each of the 32 NFL teams.

 

[St. Widge]

This makes the most sense. We are all frustrated with his inability to stay healthy. But the fact is that he has talent so there is no point in cutting him when you can put him on IR to get healthy and learn the system.

 

[ELLIASJWILLIAMS]

Expected

 

[sammymvpknight]

Patrick yes, but to me Perine didn't play well in the preseason games.

But did our guys? At least Perine has shown something in real games in the past.

 

[504gks]

Images of Harvey Korman upcoming….

I dont think most

No way! JW is a bonafide starter in this league!

I’m just Joshin’ am a big fan of him but he’s not a bonafide starter in this league as so many here asserted.

He's still the funniest QB in his league

 

[504gks]

Iirc he was a 4th. I don’t think of them as busts when they don’t pan out. Personally only feel the bust label applies to 1’s and 2’s.

Foskey. worst Second draft pick since Stanley Jean-Baptiste.
