News On Johnny Quinn

[Greenmom]

Johnny called Zach last night to let him know that he had received a call from the Saints and he is headed to New Orleans. He was real excited to receive the call. We wish him the best!

[untcampbell]

Go Johnny Go!

Another reason to go to New Orleans!

[Green Means Go!]

That's great...thanks for the info, Greenmom.

Good luck, Johnny!

[greenminer]

Great news. Best wishes to Quinn.

I guess NO can't get enough Mean Green. All the more reason for us to return to the Big Easy.

Buffalo or New Orleans...give me NO. I hope he makes it on that squad, that would be a fun team to be on.

[ntsumck]

He is getting a 1 day tryout. If they like what they see he will join them in camp.

GOOD LUCK Johnny!!

[Bryan316]

If they thought Marques Colston was a steal, wait until they see Johnny.

[FirefightnRick]

Thanks for the update. Tell TwoDogs and Zach hey for us as well.

[GabeGMG]

OMG that would be amazing if he makes the team, being a native of Louisiana I am a HUGE Saints fan! Good luck Johnny!

[Coffee and TV]

If they thought Marques Colston was a steal, wait until they see Johnny.

Get back to work.

16 Moore, Lance WR 5-9 -177 ------------ 8/31/83 2 Toledo --- caught one pass last year (only year)

17 Meachem, Robert WR 6-0 215 ---------- 9/28/84 R Tennessee --------- #1 draft pick this year

19 Henderson, Devery WR 5-11 200------ 3/26/82 4 LSU ------- will make roster -- 32 catches, 745 yards

18 Copper, Terrance WR 6-0 203 --------- 3/12/82 4 East Carolina ----- will make roster, I would think. --- (31 catches 431 yards)

--Michael Lewis -----seems to be gone--- he was a return guy who rarely played the WR position.

I would give the Mighty Quinn a pretty good chance... with only 4 receivers there who are pretty much cinch players. [ Colston, Copper, Henderson and Meachem ]

NO vs BUF Aug 10 @ 7:00PM on CBS

Wouldn't it be something if JQ plays in this game and plays exceptionally well against BUF. He'll make them sorry they cut him.

Go Johnny Go!

Johnny called Zach yesterday and told him he had a great practice, didn't drop a single ball. They told him they were impressed with his practice and to hang on as there will be people dropped from the roster. He felt real upbeat about his opportunities at New Orleans.

Greenmom, thanks for the update. We all wish Johnny (and all our ex-Mean Green heroes) well.

What has happened to Joe Horn?

[Mean Green 93-98]

What has happened to Joe Horn?

Atlanta.

Justin noticed on the waiver wire that N.O. just released WR Chris Jackson...is this to make room for the Mighty?

[ParksAndRecRick]

Talked to his dad at Football Kick-Off. Johnny was waiting for the call! Glad he got it!

Go Bro Go!!!!!!

Saints waive LB Faulk, WR Ridgeway

Posted by Mike Triplett August 08, 2007 4:34PM

The Saints waived former LSU linebacker Trev Faulk and receiver Dante Ridgeway on Wednesday. In their place, they signed rookie receiver Derrick Doyle from Northwestern State and former Harvard offensive tackle Nik Sobic.

I swore I was going to see Johnny's name after reading that Ridgeway was cut. Hope he still has a chance.

N.O. just released WR Chris Jackson

This was from their waiver wire, so they still have room to add the Mighty...ideally

Have not seen any movement on the Saints site with regards to transactions.

Although, each time a player is waived they turn around an sign someone...

I was up at tavern tonight and johnny Quinn was up there with Dylan Lineberry.

[BIG DAWG]

Well did you ask him what the deal was with the Saints?
