A position-by-position outlook for New Orleans

Offensive line

Jammal Brown, Jamar Nesbit, Jeff Faine, Jahri Evans, Jonathan Stinchcomb, Zach Strief, Jonathan Goodwin, Andy Alleman

What we think: As pass blockers, the Saints' offensive line has no peer in the NFL. But as run blockers, they struggled mightily in 2007. A lot of that had to do with the carousel of tailbacks, but some of it had to do with the Saints not having any good run blockers.

With both Faine and Nesbit available to shop themselves around in the free-agent market, look for at least one of those players to cash in on their recent success. Don't be surprised if both players end up leaving, as Brees feels really comfortable with Goodwin at center.

Andy Alleman, the Saints' third-round pick in the 2007 NFL draft, would likely replace Nesbit at the left guard position.
