Maybe Ronnie can play the first 8 games then Reggie can come in for the second 8 games...

Many are forgetting Larry Johnson may be available via trade; we just couldn't sign 'em...

i also believe we will address an offensive position somewhere in the draft. maybe TE or WR in rounds 3 or 4
Well... it is a presumably deep draft at DT and DE ... let's take advantage of it. Plus another LB or two.

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

Some value in R2 if they are there...

Corey Wootton, DE, Northwestern
Sean Weatherspoon, LB, Missouri
Daryl Washington, OLB, TCU

Weatherspoon is the top LB in the draft and won't make it out of round 1 IMO.

Washington may be there at 32, but I'd rather have Jerry Hughes TCU - the guy is a DE/LB type who can cover.

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

Canton still can't figure out that we run a 4-3 defense and that Cody is best fit at NT in a 3-4. He'll keep arguing, making nonsensical points, and generally be misinformed about all things football if you keep replying to him.

My advice is to just wait until the draft, and when Cody's fat ass is still sitting there when we pick at number 32 and we pass then and only then will this be resolved. I think the Saints personnel people know best so if they pass on him then I will feel pretty vindicated in this argument.

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

Well, depending what we do in FA, it looks like passing on Clay Matthews or Brian Cushing last season may have been ill-advised (I know it's still early on the OSU guy and in the end, I've warmed to the pick)...

But I'm not sure who you sign at Linebacker at this point; reminds me of the situation the past two years of when we were trying to resurrect the career of Dan Morgan?!?

Linebackers in the draft...or do we just trade some picks...again?!?

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

Trade around in the first two rounds for of the draft to get a couple of thirds and pick these two up? of course the first two picks go defense.

TE/HB/HB/FB(?) Dorin Dickerson, Pitt,
6-1, 226, 4.40.
Benchx225: 24. Vertical: 43. Arm: 34

Third down and goal line guy at pitt that can catch? sounds like Bells replacement to me. Flip him out the back field with bush in the slot and force LB coverage? hmmm interesting.

TE Dennis Pitta, BYU, 6-4, 245, 4.63,
Benchx225: 27. Vertical: 34. Arm: 32 1/4
Pitta is probably the best pass catching TE in the draft, definitely the smartest. I like the idea. Now take the Bush and Dickerson play and throw Pitta as the TE? That would have SP drooling I am sure and defenses reeling.
