I think he is better against the run game than pass. He also plays both DE & DT. Hargrove has more pass rush but not as stout at the line. It will be no surprise then to see Hargrove move back out which he had done all of his career previously. I'll go so far as to say Hargrove would have a more noteworthy impact than he has had on the inside. A big impact would be a godsend to secure the LDE spot and not have to worry about it with a FA or draft. (What was the name of that guy that used to play there? The one who got stabbed that time.)

I doubt he will see meaningful playing time in the divisonal game, hasn't played a down all season.

Going to shite and being game shape for the NFL are two completely different things

I heard he barely missed making the team, so we could be in a lot worse shape.

Not knocking Grant, but maybe we'll even see an improvement in the run stop.

Could it be any worse? Don't answer that.

Yep, he was probably the last guy or two the saints cut. Having 2 kickers most of the year didn't help.

He is a player thats been given a second chance on a superbowl caliber team...... I think that mentality will help him show what he's got on every play..... It should be fun to watch. Good thing he has two weeks to learn the system
