A chance to evaluate

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va. — While Saints players had Tuesday off to get away from football, it provided an opportunity for the coaching staff to look over procedures and evaluate players.

With 90 players on the roster, the coaching staff takes time to sit down with the scouts, who are in West Virginia for another week, to discuss the personnel and restack the depth chart. We’ve already seen the results of some of those moves with players like linebacker Kasim Edebali and defensive tackle Bobby Richardson moving up the depth chart in recent practices.

“Every third or fourth night we’ll have that meeting, and that might go until, last night, 11:40 or 11:45,” coach Sean Payton said.
