The fact he has an after the tackle anything proves we need him. Apparently he can tackle.

That being said, his celebration may be a product of just being in Atlanta, and their culture... Look at White and Grimes........

My guess is he's a back up plan if we don't sign Hawthorne.

Think about how awesome the LBs could be if we signed Lofton.

WLB Vilma
MLB Lofton
SLB Wilson

I can only hope this happens. Would be the Saints' best LB corp since the Dome Patrol.

I'd personally prefer:

WLB Woodyard
MLB Hawthorne
SLB Wilson

Lofton, IMO, is the best FA LB available. Hawthorne is a distant second.

I don't know about the distant part, but Lofton is ranked higher than Hawthorne, and that is why Lofton will probably ask for more money than Hawthorne, which is the reason I chose Hawthorne over Lofton.

This way they might have some money left over (from Vilma's and others' releases) to maybe go after Woodyard.

Lofton has been healthier than Hawthorne...

Now it's Sunday > is there something to announce?

Such as there will be announcement of an announcement on Monday?

Is there any new news on the LB search...?
