[St. Widge]

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

All our RBs looked good in preseason. And that may be more scheme than anything, but Robinson is a former 1,000 yard rusher and Williams is a former 1,000 yard rusher that led the league in TDs one year, so it's not like none of them have ever produced. I'm not convinced Perine is better than Robinson and Robinson got cut.

And Perine has never come close to 1,000 yards in a season. His best season was his rookie year at like 600 yards.

Surprised by Jonathan Abram, I thought he was good depth for us

 

[SaintsSpringBayou]

I hope Kibodi lands on the PS. I just really enjoyed watching him play and can catch out of the backfield. We need PT clones. I miss PT.

Saints should keep an eye on Chargers S Tony Jefferson

 

[RJS]

He's not subject to waivers, so there may be an understanding to bring him back on the practice squad. We know the team loves his work ethic.

 

[GeneHansen]

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

Abram could be re-signed after a player from the 53 is sent to the IR.
As a vet, he won't go through waivers.

I don’t think that any of our RBs looked that good this season. My argument isn’t Perine over Kamara or Williams. It’s Perine over the slew of other mid RBs on our team.

 

[B4YOU]

Hergel deserved to be on the roster.

I thought he would beat Lemieux. Surprised to see both gone. Maybe Hergel to PS and we pick up a vet released.

This suggests 6 CBS make it.

 

[saintfan1972]

We should still have Morstead

That was a money decision.

I hope Kibodi lands on the PS. I just really enjoyed watching him play and can catch out of the backfield. We need PT clones. I miss PT.

I would've love to have seen him with the 1st teamers. What we saw was good, but against 3rd team guys trying to make a roster. Hard to judge by that.

I disagree about our RBs. I think the run game overall looked improved over last year. So I guess we just disagree there.

But, our RBs are Kamara, Williams, Taysom Hill, and Mims. The only guy he might be conceivably better than is Mims and Mims is really here to play the receiving back role if AK gets hurt or needs a rest. I'm not sure Perine would be better in that role than Mims and it's conceivable that Hill would get those catches if Kamara is hurt or needs a rest. I also don't know if Perine really fits an outside zone run scheme. I know Denver isn't running that but I'm not sure if the Bengals do.

 

[St. Widge]

This suggests 6 CBS make it.

If so I would have thought that Jean-Charles was one of them but he got cut. Then again, this isn't going to be the final 53 and I suspect Abram will be one of those guys that get promoted the game day roster from the practice squad.

 

[SirLoinSaint64]

Robinson could come back. Isn't there a rule where if you're a vet on the 53 opening day, your whole salary is guaranteed?

 

[big screen D]

I see the Turk hasn't swung by the receiver room yet.

 

[IceHot]

perhaps Rezjohn Wright or Mac McCain?
