Thanks goes out to Super Dud and BayouRebel for posting the latest about the Saints roster cuts. That is exactly the help CSC will need to keep everyone informed as Gustav approaches!

Here is what the New Orleans Saints official website had to say.

The New Orleans Saints have made a series of personnel moves today, the first steps in getting down to the NFL-mandated maximum of 53 players on the roster by the deadline of Aug. 30, it was announced by Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis.

The club has placed seventh-round draft pick WR Adrian Arrington (toe) on Reserve/Injured, where he will spend the entire season. The Saints have also terminated the contract of veteran S Lance Schulters, and waived DE Jeremy Geathers, TE Ronnie Ghent, DE Marcus Pittman, S David Roach, G Isaiah Ross and T Brian Stamper.

The team’s roster currently stands at 67 players after today’s transactions. League rules stipulate that all NFL clubs must be at 53 players by 3 p.m. CT Aug. 30.

Schulters

So much for that. He must not have much left, since they could use some safety help.

YES! We keep Arrington!

I’m sorry he has to miss the year, but at least they kept him a Saint. Colston, Meachem and Arrington is the future.

Arrington has to cut and paste Meachem’s attitude last year. From what I saw, he could be as good as Colston in 2 years. Getting dizzy just thinking I could be a D-Coach having to deal with Marques, Robert and Arrington on the same night! Oh wait, let’s pressure their QB. Oops, it’s Drew “how can you be so accurate day in day out” Brees. Hey! Who are those 2 other guys!

I made it! A post without takling about the D…..
