Re: Lets Talk Fa And Draft

There's a reason the Patriots went undefeated this year. They went out and signed the best defensive player last year in free agency and traded for the best offensive player.

We must sign TOP TALENT and stop this middle of the road crap with the likes of Simmons, Kaseviharn, Simenoux, David. We need impact players on D at LB, DT, CB, and FS. We probably need two at each of those positions.

There is also another reason for this.......the draft extremly well, and they coach very well. The Front Office for that team is amazing....yes I admit it, I have a man crush on the front office of the Pats.

This post makes the most sense to me on this thread. The Saints have tried to bring in the second tier defensive guys to patch major holes for years. This is the year they HAVE to go out and spend the money on defense like they have spent it on the offense. They to at least target Samuel or Briggs. I know its alot of money but i think it is a necessity to bring in a VETERAN that can be the leader of the defense. If we cant get either of those two, we NEED to try and bring in Trufant but the guy i think fits the best is Nnamdi Asomugha from the Raiders. And even after signing one of those 4 guys, the saints need to continue to stockpile talent on defense through the draft. I think Payton has proven that he can plug in anyone and be successfull in our offense so to me that should be an afterthought. Getting young on the interior d-line, an athlete or two at LB, and an impact guy AND some youth at CB and safety.


That is my plan and i am sticking to it.

It's all in the reflexes.
