Not bad for a 3-13 team

agreed alot will depend on the OL jelling as we said. The D is better then last year. How the LBs and the Secondary jell is also a determining factor. If we finish 11th that would mean the 21st pick. I like that spot. I just wish we would trade for picks not players. Need flexability man. Sink or swim with what we have and build next year also.

Um, that's just the NFC. So 11/16 ain't a ringing endorsement.

Also that list has all the other three teams in our division ranked ahead of us.

Here's to the defense being solid, especially against the run, and the offense keeping the opposition off balance.

Then the author of this list can shove it where the sun don't shine.

you're right, more realistic I suppose. Success will make the story all the more dramatic as it unfolds.

Don't buy into preseason rankings...no one knows who is going to step up, who is going to get hurt, and who is just going to blow it when the games start...I think the Saints will be much improved but still too many question marks to be a contender.
