Last Chance Andy



From what I gather, "Last Chance Harvey" was a 2008 Dustin Hoffman film about a man who's sad and walks around a city with a woman to make himself feel better.

 But we're not talking about Dustin Hoffman, and this ain't no movie. This is real.

Andy Tanner has managed to stick around with the Saints going on 5 years now. This might be the best chance he'll ever have to make and stay on the 53 man roster.

I feel for the guy. I really do. He's the girl that came out of the bathroom after couple's skating had already started, eating a snow cone and everyone thought she was gross.

He's Mitt's little known son who never manages to make it into family pictures, Zipp Romney.

Tavon Rooks hire him as his image consultant.

As luck would have it, the Saints did not draft a wide receiver. They did bring back Joe Morgan, and recently signed Josh Morgan, R.J. Harris and Kyle Prater. Morgan and Tanner have different skill sets. R.J. Harris and Kyle Prater are long shots. Josh Morgan is more known for his run blocking than anything.

When you look at the roster you really don't see another true slot receiver in the traditional sense, although Cooks and Colston will run their fair share of snaps out of the slot.

It's for these reasons that Andy Tanner Mania has taken over. It's all anyone can talk about. Check out this thread on tigerdroppings: Could Andy Tanner fill a Lance Moore type of role?

                                    

Calm down you guys. He's just a high motor gym rat who's a coach on the field. Sheesh.
