So what you're saying is that the Saints will continue to be successful for as long as GW remains suspended?!

So we now have 3 starting middle line backers. That's good depth(jk) but we need players whose profiles fit inside or outside....weak or strong.

Hawthorne has also started at weak side. Lofton can play all three spots. When in a 3-4 you need two inside LB's anyway with a WOLB which Hawthorne can still handle with Vilma (if still here) and Lofton in the middle.

I'm figuring that Spags feels that Chamberlain can handle the strong side since he's had him in St. Louis.
Halo likes this.

Hawthorne played some Will in Seattle if I remember correctly, and some of the evaluations I've read on him during the past two weeks stated that he can easily adjust to being a 4-3 OLB.

And they did bring in Chamberlain to give some OLB depth.

I like how we are revamping our linebackers. I said before all the 'bountygate' stuff that I thought it was time for us to part ways with Vilma. Now; with 2 younger MLB's, a high cap figure, and a possible suspension looming I think it's time for us to move on from Vilma. I like the idea of Lofton in the middle with Wilson and Hawthorne on the outside. The combination of these 3 guys should give us a solid group of linebackers.

I'm not 100% sure on that, though it's plausible. I think the skill set variety is enough where all three of them could fit into the linebacker rotation at all the positions. Now whether or not that happens I dunno, but I don't think it's a given that Vilma is gone. I do think that we need to unload some salaries and make some room(especially seeing as the cap next year may not go up as much as once thought).
