Defensive Targets ...

Saintaintso · 02-11-2013, 11:45 AM

Being that we more than held our own with SP gone ( 3rd Offensively ) I do think we should have a concentrated effort on defense.
I think we should consider these players

D.R.C : Physical , Fast , Run Stopping & Hard Hitting. He tackles better than our LB's to be squarely honest and , I have never seen him get totally burned. It's getting semi late in his career and I know he wants to take one all the way.

Paul Kruger : Dude is a Monster , Nightmare on Bourbon Street ? He was consistently in the backfield in the SB often knocking the piss out of someone.

Brent Grimes : Atlanta did him wrong refused a long term , tagged him , got hurt and now he's on the open market. Prior to this season , he was a very good Corner. Lofton can shed some light on making the transition.

Richard Seymore : 33 Years old , Proven , Has been playing forever with a team that will go absolutely nowhere.

No Grimes.

Only one on that list that caught my eye was Kruger and we simply don't have the cap space... No to the rest of 'em

Grimes tore his Achilles last year.

If he is healthy, Grimes is good. And I want Osi Umenyiora. Dude didn't play all that much last year and still got 6 sacks. I want Osi.

Where you getting the money to sign osi, plus he is a diva.... Give me the Baltimore boys, Kruger and reed..... And Dashon golson.... Also grimes I think would make a great saint right now off injury......

If we don't know where we're going to get the money to sign Osi....where do you think we're going to get the money to sign Kruger, Reed or Golson?

I like Kruger too but is he really that productive without players like Haloti Ngata, Upshaw, Uncle Ray Ray and T Sizzle (Suggs) on that defensive front? Those type of players will elevate just about anyone's game.

Just a thought.

still to early to tell. Micky is sharpening the axe as we speak or is pulling out the pen?

Ryan will likely be our biggest "get" of this offseason.

I'm still holding hope for Anthony SPencer.
