How Will Spagnuolo Fit With Saints?

Greer was our best defender all season, you have to keep him.
Also keep pat Robinson, he showed improvement towards the end of the season and is a whole lot better than Tracy porter at this moment in time (didn't think I'd be saying that two years ago, when porter picked off manning)
Keep Quddus Aswell, I think he has some instincts at FS that could be used in spags defense

Keep your eye on Johnny Patrick.

Its going to be refreshing when we are able to prevent BIG plays!

You can't blitz all the time you have to keep them guessing and mix up the coverage. GW benefited because of Sharper and Sharper only.

Galette

All the young bulls, although I think Quaddus gives Jenkins a run for his money at safety this year.

I just wanted to throw this out there...

Remember Spags tried to sign Shanle to be a starter in St. Louis last season before he re-upped with the Saints.

Spags is a smart man. It's going to be a great season.

I don't give a crap who we keep and let go... JUST GET this BS turned around.

I would be disappointed the day Porter leaves us. I mean SB memory for all of time.

Yep, I'm excited to see how many of them develop.

The disappointments this year were mostly the stop-gap vets and aging players like Smith, Rogers, Shanle, Vilma, McBride and to a lesser extent Franklin. Franklin was pretty good versus the run.

At least we won't "live by the blitz" and most recently "die by the blitz". A more balanced D will make the whole lot look better. The front four better dedicate themselves in the off season or their days may be numbered.

Are you serious? Damn it, hopefully this was the Rams just trying to get him cause he was part of a team that won the Superbowl. Come on Spags cut this waste of space
