Press Conference Tidbits:

-Not much changed on the defensive front, other than the two new signings yesterday. In addition to signing defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis yesterday, the Saints also signed safety Curome Cox, a four-year veteran who played primarily as a reserve with the Broncos and Texans.

-Today's morning session was primarily a special teams workout so there isn't much news to report, but the later practice this afternoon should be a more vigorous workout for the players.

-Some NFL officials will be at camp for the next few practices to help educate the players and coaches on some of the new rules and clarify some of the existing ones.
