David Hawthorne signs with Saints

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Very Nice! It's funny that we sign a LB that the Falcons were interested in as well and the first thing the rival fans say is: he's not good in coverage or is injury prone... jealousy perhaps?...

I'm starting to think Loomis has a Jedi mind trick because he can sign anybody. Shanle is gone in my opinion. Now lets get Brees signed Loomis.

We have 10 LBs on our roster right now. (11 if you count Casillas who has not signed his RFA offer-thing). We can't need all those guys, can we?

Maybe cut 3 or so to clear up some space for he-who-must-be-signed. (is a Harry Potter reference acceptable on a football message board?)

We have had a he-who-shall-not-be-named since '05, so sure, why not?

i hope all these lbs can cover pass catchers also. ive read that lofton and hawthorne arent the greatest in pass coverage. all they need to be really is ok. anyone is better than shanle and a hurt vilma is garbage as well. so all in all these are moves that are going in the right direction. i would be surprised if brees signs something soon (long term deal) im sure loomis wanted to make some moves and deal with brees in the end.

Lofton did have 2 interceptions last year and Hawthorne had 3; pretty decent for LB's not good in coverage...
