Can't wait till we draft an outside LB every-down rusher!

Come on Blue we don't have one LB that can match up with the talet of any of the LB from the Dome Patrol.

How about Kirby Smart from Alabama?

I know nothing about him or how the defense actually played or if he would fit what the Saints are looking to do going forward, but my understanding is that Alabama has had the best collegiate defense for two years running.

Besides Crennel, Lovie Smith is available, so is Mike Singletary. A lot of candidates to choose from.

If we follow our own history, we seem to go for the guy who kicked us in the nuts the previous season. That means Crennel. I've always liked him as a DC. I hear Lovies holding out for HC and isn't he a 4-3 guy? Not certain about Crennel or Singletary though.

LBCutta · 01-24-2013, 10:46 PM

Lovie is a 4-3 guy all the way. Call me crazy but I like Singletary, but the players might like Crennel better...

All this talk about who we'll hire. I can dig it.

Truth is, a worn out Vegetarian Zombie would be an improvement...

Maybe we're looking at someone on the Ravens or 49ers 3-4 defensive staffs, want to wait til Super Bowl is over to interview.

BTW Sean Payton has done more coaching in his 2-3 days this offseason than Mike D'Antoni has done all season!

first thing first a true 34 NT or this is domed to fail. we do not have one on the roster.

Last year was proof we could not put 2 DT on the field.

We have a long way to go.

I do not see a many LB making the switch either. we are loaded with 43 lb

5 year plan anyone?

you know i have been editing this piece and it dawned on me were the cap space will be coming from. Maybe Micky is gutting the defense all together
