Can Kaelin Clay step up and be a factor?


Recommended Posts

Lattimore is going to be on Funchess so his targets are going to be limited.

Clay has now two full weeks of practice with the starters.   I know he had a pretty decent preseason and made the original cut so they saw potential.  

He was traded and waive and we snatched him back up pretty quickly so we definitely still had an interest in him.  

I truly believe this is the key to the whole game.  If he can make them pay for stacking the box we might just pull it off and beat the Saints.   I know there is a ton of pessimism but he made some key plays in the Tampa game late to help us win so he has the skill to play.  

Thoughts?

It's possible, but outside the numbers is where the saints have strength, we need to attack the middle of the field with Vaccaro and Klein being out with injury.  IMO, Funch will be covered by Lattimore and Olsen will get all the attention accross the middle opening up room for Dickson or maybe Bersin to have a good game and be big factors.

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
    • I’m hoping SMU messes it all up and wins out. Imagine the SEC & BI0 would crap themselves trying to “fix” the problem.
