Is Bayless or Zylstra out?

[Cdparr7]

Barring that we don’t trade Anderson or Moore. If we carry 6 WR the room will likely be:

1. Moore

2. Anderson

3. Moore

4. Marshall

5. Smith

6. Zylstra

OR

1. Moore

2. Anderson

3. Moore

4. Marshall

5. Smith

6. Bayless

Zylstra has size, experience and kills it on special teams.

Bayless was UDFA pick up last year who blew it up in college but missed the season with an injury.

Anderson between two moores. Became a Smore.

[Seltzer]

Zylstra is a good special teamer and better receiver. 

I don't think it's a contest

[rayzor]

keep Zylstra. ST security.

On a side note, this is by far the most talent this team has had in the wr room in a decade.

Isn't it funny how people get blinders about players they like?.  Yea, Zylstra was great on ST.  So was Colin Jones.

Don't worry about ST.  It's overrated.  Pick your six best catchers of the ball, runners of routes.  We'll find somebody to run down the field on punts.

If you're WR5 or 6 on the team, it helps to bring something extra to the table (e.g. special teams ace, kick returner) because chances are you won't see the field on passing downs. Better Zylstra actually contribute on special teams than Bayless sit on the bench all the game. Maybe Bayless would do well on ST, I don't know. But I do think that will factor in. You can always stash Bayless on the practice squad and put him on the roster if we have multiple injuries.

Fair enough. That’s honestly still Zylstra

Don’t count out Keith Kirkwood he has experience in Saints Joe Brady scheme 

[Panthers8969]

Someone can correct me, but since when is zylstra some special teams ace? Omar bayless had a much better camp and then got injured. If he’s back to 100% he’s got a much higher ceiling than zylstra

PS for Bayless.  Zylstra competes for the 6th WR spot if we carry that many
