Billy Miller Brees favorite target last season is gone for the season with a blown Achilles Tendon. If Shockey lives up to the Shockey we have come to know we are gonna be hurting at the TE position
Sucks for Billy Miller. On another note, as a result of this injury Jeremy Shockey could have a monster fantasy season.
How in the hell does Miller get hurt in a game in which we didn't play any key players. Payton should have put Miller in that group. Obviously he didn't and I am sure he regrets it now. I assume it happened during that silly phucking Dolphins game? This is not good. Miller is one of the best backup TEs in the league.
Is anyone even worth putting on the field after Shockey? We already lost Campbell earlier in the year, so he is out as well. Hopefully a decent veteran tight end gets cut this week (or has been cut already) we can bring on board.
Checked out the Saintsreport forum and here are some names: New England Alex Smith (cut today) Arizona Cardinals Leonard Pope????
Pope out of UGA is a beast. Great blocker but needs work in the passing game. Think he will be a good one but young right now and needs to develop.
The reason miller was in the game thursday was to get more reps in he had hurt his knee earlier in camp and hadn't played much at all. And the play hr got hurt on there wasn't anyone around him. He was running a route and it looked like a sniper took him out.
