There’s no way to sugar-coat the release of drafted rookies four months into their career. It’s a product of misevaluation.
That’s where the New Orleans Saints are after cutting three rookies just months after drafting them. The players let go include:
- 4th round: OL Rick Leonard
- 5th round: DB Natrell Jamerson
- 6th round: DB Kamrin Moore
Sure, three undrafted rookies made the team. That’s bad. If those players were good enough to make the team then the Saints should have scouted them well enough to draft them instead of players who were not.
