Toon is not getting cut. That's a silly notion.

Colston and Moore are clear cut locks (though Moore may be a cap casualty next year, though I'm too buzzed to bother delving into his cap situation). Morgan is all but certain as well. Roby is a key ST player, so there's a good chance he makes it. At that point, it's a matter of whether or not the Saints want to keep 5 or 6 WRs. Graham (who will never leave the field when healthy except for breathers) is a no brainer in "5 WR" sets. Sproles (easily capable of lining up as a 5th WR) and Cadet (I'm almost certain he lined up at WR last season) are in the same boat. Graham and Sproles/Cadet lend credence to keeping only 5 WRs.

So Colston, Moore, Morgan, and Roby are all going to be active. All of that leaves one more pure WR being needed. They could keep six WRs and always leave one inactive (certainly possible), but they may really like someone at another position that they're afraid of cutting and getting picked up. If we cut Stills, I think he makes an active roster elsewhere. But if we cut Toon, who didn't play last season? I think he'll clear waivers and be good to go on the practice squad.
