Scout Team
Since neither team's starters are going to be in for very long tonight, we will get plenty of time to watch each others reserves fight for spots.
I read in another post about you guys having several good back-up RB's and that you would not be able to keep all of them. I was surprised to see Robert Edwards name mentioned. I only saw him for a short bit in one pre-season game this season and he looked pretty solid and his heart can't be questioned. He'll probably be a keeper.
But of the others, who should I watch tonight? The Saints are looking for a solid back-up for McAllister and the Dolphins and Saints seem to have a good relationship when it comes to trades.
Last year the Saints were in the same predicament. Haslett was so enthused with Cincy's Curtis Keaton, that he traded a 4th Rd pick to get him after the final pre-season game. Keaton was a bust. He might just try the same this year. Rumor has it we are also interested in the Redskins back-ups (Watson, Betts, and McCullough).
The Saints have depth at a few positions that could be of interest to other teams. We have good depth at OL, TE, and WR. Depending on needs, some of the Saints bubble players will be picked up by some other teams.
Just interested in any feedback I can get before the game. Here's to an injury free game.
