Yeah, I've got to say that De la Puente made me forget all about Kreutz, Goodwin and Tennant in a hurry.

Who knew? He looked a bit shaky in the preseason games playing at the guard position - I especially remember that one free run he gave to the opposition DT that resulted in a safety - but he has been really good at center, since he replaced Kreutz.

I guess he is going to be the center for next season?! Or at least the front-runner.

I really hope he keeps the starting job, playing the way he has his season he can only get better.
It took our offensive line a couple of weeks to gel properly, but DLP has way outperformed Kreutz, our entire O line has really stepped up and proved they can not only pass protect but they are punishing run blockers

I second your feeling, but would also like to add that I hope the Saints are able to get Nicks resigned, but he'll probably demand much more as an UFA than the 2,6M he's getting now.

I mean if Evans is averaging 8,1M a year - I would think Nicks wants something around that neighborhood to stay with the Saints as there will be many suitors after his services.

Mickey Loomis, our scouting dept and our coaching staff are fantastic at finding and developing talented players.

That is why we have been dangerous since '06!
