–The Saints will have to make a roster move Thursday to create an opening for Dez Bryant when he officially signs. They could release someone or place a player on injured reserve.
–No one on the starting offensive line practiced fully Thursday, but guard Larry Warford was the only one to not participate and that was for an undisclosed non-injury issue.
BY THE NUMBERS: 12 – The number of receptions made by the Saints’ second-most productive wide receivers (Tre’Quan Smith and Ted Ginn Jr.). That represents a huge drop-off from leading receiver Michael Thomas (70 catches), explaining the need to bring in Bryant. RB Alvin Kamara has 51 catches and TE Ben Watson has 26.
