Did you not read that he's having arthroscopic knee surgery? Meaning he is, in fact, injured? Meredith signed a 2 year contract with the Saints. The Saints gain nothing and cost themselves cap money by cutting him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get him as a stash guy or a taxi squad player, that's great. I'd love to have him on my own team and recently tried to pick him up in a trade. But several people in this thread were talking about putting him in as a starter and dropping possibly more viable, productive players in order to pick him up. I just think that's getting too caught up in the hype. Believe me, I'm a much bigger Saints fan than a fantasy football junkie. I'd love nothing more than to be completely wrong and to be honest, I was completely giddy hearing about the camp he was having. But, as I said before, this isn't a Colston situation where the unknown guy comes in and fills a void to become a star. I think Smith could be a great player, but the Saints just have too many greater players whom both Brees and Payton trust for Smith to really do a lot this year.

rajncajn Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 38 minutes ago, LordOpie said: I did read that, but many players recover from arthro in less than a month, meaning he should be fine for NOS playoffs, but NOS doesn't care. Also, Did you not read that I did not say they would cut him, but instead offer him an "injury settlement". That's where the player agrees to take a payout and void the previous contract. Why would a team put a player on IR if he's capable of playing again this year? It's week 10. Either the team doesn't expect to make the playoffs or they believe the player isn't much of a contributor. He's eligible to return in 8 weeks. Typical recovery time for arthroscopic knee surgery is 6 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XFlash Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 i saw that they rotated out Smith a lot. So much for him being the WR2 on the team. I will be dropping him. His doughnut cost me a win this week. I can't wait for the stretch to see if he will get consistent. If they sign BMarshall, I will probably pick him up (slim pickings on the wire) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelredd9 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Tre'Quan is a good example of why I don't roster speculative wide receivers. They are unpredictable. Even when they do well, you don't know what you have. I'd rather just roster 4 wide receivers who were drafted in the first 8 rounds of the draft. When I need a wide receiver because of bye weeks or injuries, there is always a halfway decent speculative wide receiver available on the waiver wire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajncajn Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Keith Kirkwood. This is a guy you want to keep an eye on as a Saints reciever. I picked him up for my DTS this week. He fits the 3 spot, does well in the slot and most of all, Brees and Payton have both been saying the things you want to hear from them. Intelligent football player, great catch radius, great desire and attitude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
