I'm not arguing against the offensive line picks, because I do think that Brees needs protection, and you can never go wrong with OLine depth. But drafting a Pittman and mutliple corners is just misguided in my opinion, especially considering we just signed Jason David to handle the other corner opposite MM. I'm just saying that having depth at LB is nice, but we could have had a stud in Posluszny. Right now we have a bunch of guys who can play, but nobody really who stands out. I think we need a playmaker at the linebacker spot, a guy who can change the game, and we just don't have one right now. Just my opinion, you don't have to agree with it, but I'm just not convinced Scott Shanle can provide what we need out of the linebacking position.
