2011 New Orleans Saints Depth Chart

I would have a hard time believing that they keep Turk McBride and Clint Ingram over depth players on the O-line, unless they seriously step it up in the next couple pre-season games. To be fair, I don't know who on the O-line they would keep, but only two back-ups (with one being a career center) for 5 positions in one of the linchpin parts of the offense...that is playing with fire.

This is a great point; either we have some special free agents/rookies in camp or we now have a concern of greater importance...

Pat Yasinskas of ESPN who writes the NFC South blog (also one of the better reporters/writers for ESPN, I know, not saying much) pointed out how our salary structure for Oline is different than any other in the league...
