I knew that one D, but everyone else has those rose colored glasses on now with Leinhart. I think we need to take Hawk and work on the defense, a QB in the second round and defense the rest of the way. Maybe some OL and DT pickups in FA along with trading away AB for another QB.

RE: defense
 

I'm not for trading down to select defense, but possibly trading down low enough to still get whatever QB's are available in Leinart, Young (assuming he DOES come out), or Cutler, and then using whatever picks we get on the trade to get defense and depth at O-line.

Well that sounds great the whole defence thingy but we really need QB offence was the problem this year ..... defence did ok offence did horrible !

Hey, AllSaints...you need to change your signature to "New Orleans Saints 3-13 2nd pick of draft" lol

Welcome aboard and check out my mock draft in the First and Gold column and so it will come to pass.

SPECIAL TEAMS!

RE: Defense !!1
 

Offense was horrible but we can take advantage of the fact this years draft is deep on the defensive side of the ball this year. Two Great LB's beat a great QB with recievers that flinch and drop the ball. Get a vet and wait later in the draft. Unless say tenn is dumb to give up the house this year and next to get there man. I will go for Cutler if and only if we make at least two trades down the board or make one block buster and i mean block buster trade down. that includes Dt or OLT or MLB or CB or OG that are proven young starters with cap friendly long term contracts. Then trade back up to get Carpenter and hodge. then we all will be happy and living a perfect world. Till then to many great defensive starters are there this year. Next year will have the offensive depth.

RE: Defense !!1
 

Would'nt that be something is we could get Hawk and Ryan from Alabama. I believe that would solve the defensive problems with the exception of a good DT which we can pick up in FA. I agree with BnB's assessment earlier that our secondary and ends are good enough we need linebackers and DT's and yes I admit a QB too, but if we can trade for Collins, Kitna or Volek and get rid of AB at the same time. I am all for that.

RE: Defense !!1
 

I love ryan's game too but i do not think he will be available. I have him as a suprise pick in the first. Higher than most boards have put him
