He hasn't in the past but you have to think Kellen has seen enough on film to project a role for him.

So would having a good offensive line. I want trench warriors. I sure hope we don’t draft TE at #9. Trade down and get some dawgs.

Mr.Riaton

Agreed. There’s trench guys throughout the draft that look good though, so if we go with a luxury pick for 9, it won’t be the worst thing. That being said, I’d love OL at 9 if we stay put. Booker or Banks would be solid there.
I also really like Jalon Walker with our first pic. I think he would be a great piece for our new 3-4 look. Plenty of solid o and d line players in rounds 2-4

Free agent guard maybe?

We have the rookie from last year too, Holker.

We won’t be drafting a TE in the first three rounds! Reid is a great pickup!

Saints agree to one-year extension with WR Pettis

Everything starts at the top, and the owner of the team must know what it takes to win, be willing to listen and not turn back when things get rough. Make no mistake about it: A coach or general manager who takes over a team that has won in the past can influence the current group by showcasing the franchise's previous glory as a model.

The quarterback -- The most important position on the field is the best place to start if a coach or GM wants to change the culture of a losing team. o really create long-term change, a coach and GM must fill the roster with good players who also are great men. It doesn't take too many personnel mistakes or bad apples in the locker room to drag a once-proud franchise to the bottom. The coach and, more importantly, the GM must be able to make the hard decision that appears cold on the surface but is the right thing to do in the long run. Cutting a player, firing a coach or dismissing a scout isn't easy, but the smart teams pull the trigger when necessary. The locker room is where teams can be made or dismantled. There's no fooling the players when there's a weak link in the locker room or a player interested in self-promotion over what's best for the team.

A bit of luck -- Every team needs some luck. Great preparation is more reliable than luck, but if something fortunate happens -- like getting a borderline call or an opponent missing an easy field-goal attempt -- it doesn't hurt.
