All right, so PFF isn't a fan of this guy.
Anybody have any other websites that can offer an opinion?
Football outsiders,etc?

I know I've seen people around the league say he is one of the best young fullbacks.
But just as PFF may or may not be right on him, same goes for these people.
In short, we'll find out how good he is here once the season starts. The Saints liked him enough to take him ahead of Collins(for 4 years at that), because I doubt Collins asking price would be much different.

The #19 ranked FB that was moved away from TE doesn't at all take leverage away from the #1 ranked TE.
Why you say that?
I say that b/c to me your logic makes no sense. If I said Drew Brees should take a pay cut b/c we have Ryan Griffin already signed, does that make any sense? That's the same logic. Please explain what I'm missing and how his signing gives us leverage.
Also explain how any player signing can affect "leverage" in a contract negotiation between a team that wants a player and the top player at his position after we've already said he'll be the highest paid TE in the league after this deal.

I don't know if his run blocking is great or not.
But I feel like Payton hired this guy because he used to be a TE and can catch a ball.
You know how he loves the spread the ball around.

Why did we say bye to Jedediah?

My comment was made in jest. I apologize for the confusion.

Godspeed Jedidiah Gabriel Collins.
Posted on 3/18/14 at 12:49 pm to Lsuhoohoo
Damn, I thought Jed was a pretty solid FB in our offense.
Posted on 3/18/14 at 12:50 pm to TigersforEver
He had a bit of a down year.

a Pulp Fiction line comes to mind..
"Zed's dead bay, Zed's dead."
Jed's dead baby, Jed's dead
the Lorig file: if dlP returns I think the Saints would be the only team with two Jewish players

Last time we signed a pass catching FB away from the a team it was Heath Evans. AND THE WE WON A SUPERBOWL.
WE GOING TO THE SHIP BABY.

he was pretty good but i think we couldnt afford him more than likely.
Posted on 3/18/14 at 1:36 pm to BlacknGold
Afford Jed? No, I don't think that was the case.
Posted on 3/18/14 at 1:37 pm to Patrick O Rly
hes already visiting with the lions guess we will see what the contracts look like
Posted on 3/18/14 at 1:40 pm to BlacknGold
I didn't hear about him visiting the Lions until after the signing, and it was reported that Lorig visited last week.
More importantly, FB's don't fetch much money, so even if Jed would call for more money, the difference would probably be negligible.
