He seems to be the real deal and many of you are willing to put all 2008 in his hands. I certainly think we could get by without drafting a RB this year. That may not even be one, yet is could certainly turn in to one at crunch time. If we go 11-5, and Deuce retires next year, you may be kicking yourself in the but for not drafting a RB high.

If that's the case, we may be hanging our whole season on if Deuce can come back or if PT can become the feature back and hold up deep into the playoffs. Reggie's hardly a bust and I think we could get by with him being the feature back, and he's never been known for picking up the blitz. Making sure that Brees has ALL OF THE WEAPONS at his disposal makes a lot of since too. Nobody wants to see Brees and I think the chances are less if Reggie isn't the primary back. In any case, I'm sure the whole board would agree it doesn't matter what I think. Heil Payton. |

The problem is who are yougoing to replace him with? If we learned anything it's that you can't count a draft pick to be an upgrade at any position and are there any vets available who definitely be a major improvement?
