If they've re-signed Roby
…that means they’ve cut someone. Who?

Had to figure
this was coming, with Bell’s emergence on offense. Roby and Meachem should pair well on KRs.

I agree
Ortega has been dropped and picked up more times than Nadya Suleman’s breast pump.

I don't even know who Nadya Suleman is without looking it up
but it sounds funny.

I would think Ortega would be gone before Dinkins

could this mean Smith and Grant are being suspended today?

i hope
that this isn’t true.
Superbowl bound!!!...I hope? Go Saints! :D
Pat Y reports:
# The Saints just announced they have signed receiver/return man Courtney Roby, who they released before the season. To clear room for Roby, the Saints waived tight end Buck Ortega.
# The Saints also tinkered with their practice squad, signing tight end Tyler Lorenzen and releasing wide receiver Matt Simon.
Never heard of the last two guys.

Flip that roster
Okay, sign a WR and cut a TE. Sign a TE to practice squad and release a WR from there.
Question: Did they sign Lorenzen to the practice squad because Ortega didn’t qualify, or do they think he’s better ? And is he “The Round Mound of Touchdown” Fred Lorenzen’s brother?

From the Saints site:
New Orleans Saints Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis announced Tuesday that the club has agreed to terms with free agent wide receiver Courtney Roby and waived tight end Buck Ortega……

It's beginning to look like...
Smith and Grant will be allowed to play this weekend. Surely they would have alerted the team by now wouldn’t they? I know, I know. Goodell is a d-bag who likes making people sweat and don’t call you Shirley, right? He needs to stop jerking everyone around and allow all players involved to play out the season.

Just posted a fanpost
from NFL.com— suspensions on hold until the Vikings’ situation is resolved. How absurd. I just wish Grant would actually start playing while he’s on the field instead of acting like he’s serving a suspension during the games…
even funnier...
is that the dude who writes the blog Saints Nation tipped him off.

So maybe Meachem's done with KO returns?
Anyone think Roby might try returning punts, too?
Smell Greatness
So is this
a strong indication that either A) Thomas will not soon be 100%, or B) Bell is officially RB1 or “1a”?
Exactly
I was just about to say that. Seems pretty apparent that #1 is now Bell’s to lose.
It will be Meacham and Roby back returning kicks, and I don’t see Bush losing punt return duties yet.
I honestly think Bell is a better runner than PT anyway.
The people who say, "Winning isn't everything," don't win very often.
I have it - just in from my NFL sources
Goodell and Grant came to an agreement last year that Grant would not be suspended as long as he does not register a sack!! Now that explains everything!
