Either by draft or trade or free agency.

I'm in Virginia and haven't been able to watch.

Cooks is even better than hoped for.
Vinnie is doing well and very well on ST.
Cooks is PS bound.
Fortt and Powell are vying to stay off the PS.
SJB is learning but will make the 53.

I'll try now...it may sound like these other guy's answers too.

Cook - Having a great camp and preseason. Runs nice routes and has lined up at every WR position on the field during preseason. Will play alot year 1.

SJB - Up and down during camp and preseason. Tons of potential. Has shown flashes of it. I think he'll play in sub packages.

Fortt - Has missed some time, most recently, due to injury. However, showed lots of versatility in camp playing inside and outside LB. If his injury isn't bad, he'll make the 53, imo.

Sunseri - Spent some time with 1s in camp. Had a great week 2 of preseason. Will definitely make the 53 just for special teams and will probably be in some sub packages in real games.

Powell - Has showed talent in camp/preseason. Is playing OLB and has a great shot to make the 53 with Butler injured.

Rooks - I haven't seen much of him (don't think anyone has). Was with 3s all camp. Practice Squad candidate.

Quick highlights of rookie UDFA.


Coleman - has all the measurables. Ideal WR prospect. Makes good plays, drops easy ones. If his camp gets better, could be PS. If not, I don't think he makes the team at all.

Dixon - like someone else said...bad.

Kilgore - nothing special. PS.

Jones - Another WR with measureables. Probably having a slightly better camp than Coleman. Will make the PS over him, IMO.

Warren - A safety that will probably make the 53 if reports are true. Could force the Saints to keep 5 safeties.

Uko - made some plays in week 1. Strong PS candidate.

Most of the others just don't matter much. But I do think the keep one of the RBs on the PS. Probably Strozier, Tulane guy. There just isn't a Thomas, Ivory or Robinson this year.
