September 15, 2009
According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, the Saints have waived tight end Buck Ortega.

Our View:The Saints needed to clear space for wide receiver/kick returner Courtney Roby, who was just signed, and Ortega got bumped. He became expendable when David Thomas was added.
October 1, 2008
Buck Ortega has once again been waived by the Saints, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Buck Ortega was brought back to the Saints' practice squad just a few days after being released by the team, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Our View:Ortega holds no fantasy value. The third-year pro is yet to record a reception in the NFL.

The Saints released Buck Ortega Tuesday.

Our View:Ortega was just signed off the practice squad before this past week's game, but the team opted to bring back Billy Miller to take his place.
July 27, 2008
Buck Ortega has been re-signed by the Saints, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune. Terms were not disclosed.

Our View:He was brought back just as an extra tight end for practice, following the release of Eric Johnson.
