Re: Saints Linebacker A.J. Klein On Schedule To Be Fully Healthy For Training Camp

On paper, the 2018 LB group appears to be solid.

Missed opportunities (fumbles & INT's) in 2017 is partially the reason he (Klein) graded out low. I'll be curious to see if Nolan slides him over to SAM full time.

I only wish Demario was 25 instead of 29 years of age. Saints must capitalize on his ability this season.

It's our time.

And deep, we're at least six deep; and this unit looks as good as the 2009/10 LB corps...

Let's compare the 2018 Training Camp Roster to the 2009/10 Championship Roster...

'09 SLB 55 - Scott Fujita, 54 - Troy Evans
'18 SLB 53 - A.J. Klein, 44 - Hau'oli Kikaha/55 – Jayrone Elliot (RFC)

'09 MLB 51 - Jonathan Vilma, 50 - Marvin Mitchell
'18 MLB 56 - DeMario Davis, 51 - Manti Te'o/54 - Nate Stupar/58 - Colton Jumper

'09 WLB 58- Scott Shanle, 59 - Anthony Waters, 52 - Jonathan Casillas
'18 WLB 47 - Alex Anzalone, 52 - Craig Robertson/59 - KeShun Freeman

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Hau'oli Kikaha/55 ... "bubble" player perhaps.

Kikaha just lacks the speed to run with tight ends, running backs in coverage...

He really should be on a 3-4 defense which is what we drafted him and Anthony to do...
