Where does Granderson rank all-time in terms of UDFA’s for us?

I feel like we don’t talk enough about the career he’s had.

Is he on par with PT23? Sammy Knight?

The Saints knew he would be good. They even let him serve a jail sentence after we drafted him.

The New Orleans Saints on Saturday established their initial 53-player roster for the 2019 regular season, and one move caught attention.

Rookie defensive end Carl Granderson, who was released from jail by a Wyoming district judge Aug. 26, was reinstated with an Exempt/Commissioner Permission designation. He will not count against the Saints' active roster.

The move allows a two-week window for the Saints to decide what to do with Granderson, who was originally set to serve a six-month jail sentence for alleged sexual assault. The sentence prompted the Saints to place Granderson on the Reserve/Did Not Report list before the start of training camp.

LARAMIE, Wyo. — A former University of Wyoming football player was released from jail in a sexual battery case after a judge found the sentence completely wacky.

Prosecutors in Albany County, Wyoming, charged Granderson in February with unwanted sexual contact with two women while all three slept at his apartment in November 2018.

It was a good extension in 2023. He never quits. I think he has always appreciated the Saints. I hope he retires a Saint.

Willie Snead was pretty good for UDFA but in my opinion he wasn’t the player PT, Sammy Knight, or Granderson was/is or even Junior Gallette. Honorable mention to Chris Ivory
