That's it, Super Bowl here we come! The prognosticators and "analcysts" can eat me. I just had a feeling we were going to land Lofton. Talk about rebuilding the defense! We got Chamberlain and Lofton - two very nice prizes on defense. Plus Brodrick Bunkley for a DT and Ben Grubbs to replace Carl Nicks.

Plus we have arguably the best O-line coach in the league.

We absolutely RULE!!!!!

LOVE the Lofton pick up.

As many of you stated it may be to replace Vilma due to his suspension. However, ponder this; Vilma only gets a 8 game suspension so the Saints keep him and he restructures his contract. Who plays MLB when he comes back?
In that scenario (wonderful scenario) I would love to see the LB core as follows: WLB-Vilma MLB-Lofton SLB-Wilson. What a dream team!

Vilma may be getting old but he can still play just needs time to heal and a suspension may give him that.

As far as Chamberlain goes, he reminds me of Herring so I am not to excited for that pick-up.

No one ever labeled Michael Boley a two down LB, he was to expensive to keep and was made expendable when we drafted Curtis Lofton. Curtis started in the middle and Keith Brooking was moved outside to replace Michael, now slowly back out of this thread u clueless azzclown!!!
