Thanks for that info!

The Saints' tackles are a liability, but that won't change until next offseason when Bushrod probably leaves or takes a big pay-cut in the next contract, and Strief shouldn't be a starter to begin with, so I can't be too harsh on him.

I'm still hoping that Marcel Jones could be coached/groomed into a good RT, since the scouting reports on him do indicate that he has the physical requirements to be a good RT if he just improves on the technical side.
