seriously, stfu. Season is halfway! What a "fan" you are.

Who made you the post police? I'm sorry, what are we allowed to talk about by your rule book? I reallize where the season "is", and i'm just expressing interest in this player. Newsflash for you by the way, he's a JUNIOR, meaning he won't be coming out til year after next... Now, what were you saying again?

Sigh, just that you have obviously given up. Nuff said.

Oh get outta here! I have been in this group for years, and followed this team since before you were born. Gimme a break... Talking about great college players, DOESN'T mean someone is giving up on the season...

I think our draft needs have shifted from LB being the #1 priority to the O-line.

Hightower is projected as a mid to late 1st rounder. Unless we do some wheeling and dealing he won't be in a Saints uni next year.

And as Mitch has stated, if there's an OL there in the 2nd, he's likely our pick.

My wish list?

Is to drive down to New Orleans and kick EVERY coach in the balls as hard as I can for putting that crap on the field yesterday, and for thinking this was going to be a cakewalk and not preparing a gameplan for yesterday's debacle.

Not sure I trust our guys to draft the right O lineman.

Yeah we've found Nick and Evans but we've also been stuck with a lot of question marks...

Maybe we should go the veteran route?

Looked more like poor execution to me.

Probably will. We always address needs in free-agency and draft BPA every year. 2012 will be no different.

Never too early to start thinking about the draft. I'm all for drafting Hightower...among others.

With what picks and what money?

All draft picks should be spent on DE's and OLB get everyone you can and kick rocks until you find some decent ones because ours SUCK! They are pussies.

Cut it out..we need O-line first ..then a LBr..our DEs are the least of our worries..we had sacks and they were getting pressure...The lambs adjusted and ran the ball..look how that worked...Saints were you paying attention?

I think we need to get younger. I looked at the Franklin and Rogers signings as an instant fix. I think we need a lot of help on the O line, DT, LB. As much as people on here are in love with Ivory.... I really feel he is like having 3 Ferrari's and buying a 4th, when you live in a doublewide trailer. Do you really need that 4th car or should you sell it and spend the money on something you REALLY need?

I'd say LB is the biggest priority followed by OL and the DL. I all for trading one of our "great" RBs for more picks, just don't see whou would buy considering our guys don't have any production.

Definitely O-line draft, we have to protect our best asset.

Seriously?? He even said that he knew it was early in the season when he made his post. Nothing wrong with looking ahead.

Well, Hightower is only a junior, and with the rookie cap taking effect next season, im thinking he will stay at Bama for his senior year. This guy plays lights out, beastmode, from beginning to end. Not to mention, he is HUGE. I was actually thinking about first rounding him in 2013.... If we are all still here after 2012 that is.... Lmao
