Fix the current Saints

this is starting to sound like atlantas melt down on their boards. just relax. as long as we have brees we will be in every game. we havent gotten blown out in years. we cut a few wet farts this year...no big deal. we have injured players coming back that hopefully can play that will make our team better and we have the draft and free agency. EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT.

Amen, we could field the exact same team and barring excessive injuries we'd win 11 or 12 games.

You don't fix this team, you simply improve it.

I couldn't agree more. I don't feel at all like an overhaul is needed. We've got a good knife - just need to sharpen it some.

For the most part, we're talking here about peripheral changes to improve the team. We all know that we have great parts to build around like Brees, the OL, Colston, Moore, Graham, Ellis, Will Smith, Vilma, Jenkins, Porter/Greer/Robinson, and for the most part a really good coaching staff.

Mickey Loomis is getting his wet stone ready to sharpen our team.
Hmmmm.........that knife may be so sharp someone gets cut.

DT- Run stopper who can attract blockers and free up DEs for pass rushing and allow LBs to make plays.

OLBs- TWO!! New OLBs to make plays.

RB- Need a power back that can stay on the field. I am OK with PT, as a rotational back at the right price. Reggie has been an OVER paid 3rd down back (decoy) for too long, only sign him for a fair price. spend that money on DT, LB, RB Free agents

Special Teams!

O-line did a good job. More balance pass/run is needed to keep the other teams defense respecting the run and not rushing the passer.
Drew Brees is amazing, Help him out with a balanced attack. Also keeps defense fresh.

Resign free agents (LANCE MOORE)!!!
