I have to say I know Sproles still has some years i front of him but too any times I was cheering Roby's name on special teams time and time again. He was a good Saints in his short time hopefully he floats around come camp time.

Miss him in what sense? He was a really good gunner, and a below average returner.

Sproles was never great on kick offs, although he'd break one every once in a while, and he's been declining as a punt returner.

I could be way wrong, but it seemed like Sproles had maybe one good return all season? Or maybe even that return was actually Robinson actually..

I know Goodell changing the rules didn't help

I think you are right about Sproles. I don't miss Roby. He was a one trick pony. But to compare Sproles and Roby is apples to oranges. Fact of the matter is we need both a new true gunner and someone to relieve Sproles of his return duties so he can stay healthy as a running back. As the season went on it seemed as if Sproles lost a step, especially returning punts.
