METAIRIE — The Martez Wilson experiment, a.k.a. the conversion of New Orleans Saints’ second-year pro from linebacker to defensive end this offseason, is now in Week 8.
And while the principle decision-makers caution that the evaluation process is ongoing, Saints acting head coach Joe Vitt and first-year defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo both give am enthusiastic two thumbs up. “So far, so good with regards to how you judge his transition,” Spagnuolo said after the team’s 90-minute walk-through on the first day of minicamp Tuesday afternoon. “Any time you do something like this, the first thing you got to have is the player has to embrace the change, and he’s been terrific. He has embraced it, he wants to do it and he’s passionate about it. “So what more can you ask for?” Read more. Move to defensive end suits Saints DE Wilson | Saints | The Advocate |

You know; with all these changes that Spagnoulo is trying out. That "5th" preseason game looks like the silver lining...

I'm thinking Romeus makes the team and Wilson will play OLB/DE depending on the situation...
