FYI: Cuts begin today

[96Bravo]

I'd keep my eye on Seattle. They're loaded with DBs. Already cut a few, including Bearcat Arquon Bush.

Bradley Roby just released by the Saints.... Sign that man

Saints released DB Bradley Roby.

The Saints were reportedly fielding calls about Roby’s availability ahead of cut-down day but opted to release the long-time vet. Roby has spent the last two seasons with the Saints but struggled in pass coverage last season, earning a PFF grade of 49.6. He should have a decent market but shouldn’t be treated as a full-time starter at this point in his career.

The type of guy you add and hope never sees the field.

According to the official roster, we still have Deshaun Williams, Nick Thurman and some guy named LaBryan Ray (never heard of him).

D Williams is a veteran who had 4.5 sacks at Denver last year--very familiar with our DC.  He makes the roster.

YGM has played inside--there is some talk about him being a situational pass rushing 3Tech.  If so, his versatility could be valued.

Hoping we bring back of few of these players to the PS. Guys like Vann, Spencer Brown and Kobe Jones showed some potential and could be developed with time.

I don’t think there were 2 D Williams as far as I know. There was a Raequan Williams who was cut, and there is still a DeShawn Williams, both big guys on the DL.

Thank you!  I thought people were wanting Deshawn cut and that we cut him.  I was thinking he looked pretty good when he was in the game.  It all makes sense now!  Now I can go back to go back to sobbing over cutting Bumper Pool.

Gross.  I was thinking he was pretty solid when he played for Denver.

Lol going into preseason, I only knew we signed a D. Williams from Denver.  So when an announcer said something about "Raequan Williams" in our preseason game against the Giants after a big guy with "Williams" on the back of his jersey made a play, I kinda scoffed and thought "Wow what an embarrassing gaffe..." until I looked up that we indeed had a Raequan Williams on our roster.

I'm ashamed to say I dont know who any of those guys are. Which is why I was worried after I saw Henry Anderson was back on IR. Isn't he the guy who had cancer last season but made it back for like the last 4 games or something?

Well I am glad I wasn't the only one.

were you in a coma when we had the last couple good years Ted Ginn had left in him in 2013 and 2015?

In 2013, 2015, and 2016 he had 39 Kickoff returns for Zero touchdowns with a long return of 59 yards, so there was one good return Im guessing.  As for punts, 82 punt returns with yet again zero touchdowns with a long in that span of 41 yards.  Was he decent? Sure, but he was not elite, not even a little.
