Likely Cuts to Come

no big surprises-

T-P:

It sounds like defensive tackle Brian Young won't be on the Saints' roster this year. Payton said he had another knee surgery three weeks ago, and he just can't seem to get healthy. It's too bad. Young is one of the great guys in this locker room, but his body isn't cooperating.

Payton wouldn't get into specifics about veteran who might be cut from the roster going forward. But he said, "There may be some moves still made that affect our current roster."

Here's two other names still in jeopardy: defensive tackle Hollis Thomas and cornerback Jason David.

David is now buried pretty far down on the depth chart, but Payton said he's still got a chance to stick around through the OTAs and training camp to see if he can improve under new coordinator Gregg Williams' system.
