This whole idea of getting a high draft pick does nothing for me... We have to many wholes to fill unless we trade it away for more picks.

We get it. Thanks.

Though that leaves us out of the Leinart/Bush range, Jimmy Williams will probably still be on the board. Oh yea baby! Hawk might be there, but I think we can get a solid linebacker in round two.

So in other words you are following the blueprint Haslett has used the past 6 years? a solid LB like Vilma? Ray Lewis?

That's why WR'S run freely throughout the mid range, and RB'S can never be stopped on sreen plays or misdirectional plays.

Hard to stop when their QB's hit them in stride. Wonder what it would be like to have a qb like that?

I don't know the Saints have never had one...

How about a solid linebacker like Odell Thurman, Michael Boley, Kevin Burnett, Lofa Tatupu, Kirk Morrison, Channing Crowder, etc.? Trust me, I can go on and on with this... that was just last year only. If you recall, they were not drafted in the first round yet they are all very productive... and most of them are starting right now.

There will be at least 5 first round caliber linebackers in this years draft with many others that will go in the later rounds who are just as good. I can give you a list of 10 extremely good linebackers and I can promise you not all of them will go in the first round.

Are you fighting against me, are with me? and with all those LB'S you mentioned, in which I wanted Crowder badly not that I swing like the rainbow guys. Who did we select? Did we need one of those LB'S badly?

I'm from the Jimmie Johnson school, Safeties can be made out of tweeners LB/S ala Sammy Knight, never take a OL high...The prime position for high picks, DT, LB'S, CB'S...Offense QB, WR, RB...The exception to the rule, is when the Munoz type LT is available...

Do we need another CB? no! Mckenzie, and whenever F.Brown gets his head together is great...We have a severe problem in the middle of our defense, as a lot of people knew from last year strength in the secondary does what against the run?

I have no response because I'm already confused... no need to further myself in this conversation.
