New Orleans Saints players applaud the hiring of Rob Ryan

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Vilma has lost a step, he doesn't possess the speed he once had... He wasn't big enough to handle the 3-4 with the Jets in his prime, what makes you think he can now? Lofton will have his own responsibilities, ...

Vilma has lost a step, he doesn't possess the speed he once had...

He wasn't big enough to handle the 3-4 with the Jets in his prime, what makes you think he can now?

Lofton will have his own responsibilities, Hawthorne would be a better fit next to Lofton in his natural ILB position...

I'm still not sold on Ryan but if the players like him thats whats most important. But if I don't misremember they were really happy to get Spags too...

Funny you bring him up, he has the size to play inside, not sure about the speed though. I would like to draft at least 1 inside lb. in the draft or pick up one in FA. I like Lofton but I'm unsure how he does in Ryans scheme?

Re: New Orleans Saints players applaud the hiring of Rob Ryan

A middle of the pack defense - say, 18th in yards allowed or 15th-16th in points allowed is just what the doctor ordered for our team. That would have probably allowed us to go 11-5 or even better last season given how many points we put up on offense.

As long as the players buy into his program and Ryan can actually institute his plan then I'm in! Get to coach Rob.
