Re: Position Battles to Watch Ahead of the New Orleans Saints OTAs
The offense might be hard to watch at the start of (but hopefully not throughout) the season. I think we all hoped the Saints would've done more to strengthen the receiving core but Olave and Shaheed are solid, Bub Means showed flashes of talent before his injury, and maybe Peoples-Jones will be our Jerome Pathon for a few seasons.
edit: And what will become of the QB situation? Haener appears to be the odd man out while Dekkers seems like a more intriguing prospect. |

Competition between the Bama Aussie punter and the tattooed wonder from last year.
Someone needs to make an exploding football for our kicker to attempt a 50 harder with, since he was such a prankster on the golf course . | |

Re: Position Battles to Watch Ahead of the New Orleans Saints OTAs
[QUOTE=saintsfan1976;1009942]What I'm watching:
3-4 or 4-3 or hybrid defensive front? CB +1. Saints ranked near the bottom in passing and rushing defense for 2024. CB is still a big concern for me. Coach Staley and his staff have work to do. |

Asante makes sense now, but cut downs will be intersting... Could the Eagles part with Kelee Ringo and is he ready to be a full time boundary CB? |

I don't think it'll take long to fix at all. One player here and there with the right philosophy can completely change a team around. |
