Saints put LT BRown on IR

Both Bushrod and Strief has played well. A couple of sacks given up were on Brees for holding the ball too long. For Bushrod to equal Brown in preventing a couple sacks, all he has to do is grab hold of the jersey like Brown does and back us up 10 yards. Brown is a great RT and just slightly above average LT in my opinion. Now with all this said I think we know what should be targeted in the draft next year.

I'd target a RDE, or LDE, or OLB before a LT.

We may target a LG, if we move Nicks to LT. My guess is we re-sign Brown and he continues to play above-average LT for us for several more years.
