I hope he gets a permanent role with them...he's a great kid.

I'll be rooting for him, even as Reggie Bu$h's teammate.

He works hard, and I think he'll do a good job!

Now in articles like this, and in a LOT of others, they show pics of (insert ND player here) in the green jerseys. Since we only wear them at most once a year, why do they chose these pictures? Can it be that people like they classy way they look? If they are really one of the ugliest (see other thread) why do they continually get used in articles like this?

just an interesting observation

I don't know if McKnight will stick with the Saints (although their first round WR has started off like a train wreck - came in way overweight & out of shape after the pre-draft "dinner circuit", and just had knee surgery), but it sounds like he's shown enough to stick with some team's roster, if in no other capacity than the practice squad.

Johnson mentioned that he feels McKnight has been greatly aided in the early transition stages from college football to the NFL by virtue of the big games and sophisticated offensive philosophy McKnight played in under Notre Dame Head Coach Charlie Weis.

"He is coming out of a very sophisticated system, with many similarities to some of the things we do," said Johnson said of Notre Dame's and the Saints' top-ranked offense last season. "He understands the game of football and a lot of the intricacies about offensive sets that young players often don't have at the same stage of their careers that he has right now. That is a credit to what he learned under Charlie Weis."

I love these types of quotes.

Out of the ND undrafted players he suprised me the most. Dude definently deserved to be drafted.

---------Maybe now dumbass NFL people will realize this before the draft and not pass on Quinn and McKnight.

I agree it is great to see quotes like this straight from NFL coaches. I hope potential recruits such as Floyd read about this, and how prepared he will be for the NFL if he attends ND.

I don't think so man. People said he went to a couple of camps and was just dropping passes left and right...and to top it all off he is not fast.

HOWEVER, if he earns his way onto a roster I think that would be great.

I trully see him on a team some where I have a lot of faith in him...he must make the big catch when he has the chance during pre season...he has a habit of dropping the ball on major important plays....the difference is at ND he got more chances he wont get that in the pro's
