If you need a defensive end -- and, no, we're not speaking specifically to St. Louis Rams officials, who lost Grant Wistrom to free agency and could be without Leonard Little because of a recent DUI -- you might consider phoning New Orleans general manager Mickey Loomis. No, we don't know that Loomis is in a selling mode, and chances are he isn't. But the Saints suddenly have one of the deepest end contingents in the NFL, after the addition of Will Smith of Ohio State in the first round last week, and New Orleans arguably has one of the thickest defensive line groups in general. The ends include Darren Howard, Charles Grant and Willie Whitehead, in addition to Smith. At tackle, the Saints have Johnathan Sullivan, Brian Young and Kenny Smith. The old axiom is that you can never have enough big bodies and, given the injuries the Saints have suffered the past few years, they might balk at decreasing their current inventory. But even a player such as Whitehead, arguably the No. 4 end on the New Orleans depth chart right now, might look pretty good to a franchise that has a shortage at the position.
