Senio Kelemete is working with #Saints first team at LG during walkthroughs.


Desparately needed. Peat at RG (would prefer him at RT but they really don't want to move Strief so whatever) and Kelemete at LG will helo stabilize this line.

Peat should have never been on the left side, nor should have Lelito. Kelemete is a natural LT but has the size and speed to play LG.

Rotations are normal in practice during camp/preseason, but it's telling Kelemete started with the ones.

I can see Pruitt making practice squad. Not as active as Harris & Crawley, but he's made his fair share of plays.

Saints coach Sean Payton praising Jairus Byrd for two strong days of practice, steady progress all offseason and his attitude and diligence throughout a frustrating two-year knee injury. Payton said Byrd saw "every doctor under the sun" and no one cares more about Byrd getting back than Byrd does.

Sean Payton joked that Senio Kelemete might be "our warm-weather guard" and Tim Lelito the cold-weather guard after Lelito dealt with cramps Tuesday. Payton said both are still competing for starting LG job.

Well shite it was just cramps?

Hopefully Kelemete locks that shite down. Lelito can be the swing G/C reserve.

And hopefully Unger and Edebali are okay. We need both of those guys.

True and I think him getting C work signals he is training for the reserve G/C spot.

And good to hear about Ede.

It's obvious to me that they're easily better than last year. I don't know about top 5 or top 10. I'd love nothing more than to be proven wrong though.

I would hope so. I don't think it could get any worse.
