Re: Saints Depth Chart 2013
Damn jeanpierre, now you've got the entire Will LB crew on shaky ground. Should we go to to a 3-3-3 (3 DL, 3 LB, 3S) defense?

Re: Saints Depth Chart 2013
Yeah I was thinking Herring myself although you make a pretty convincing argument with Vilma and the $$$ thing. Are there any of our OLBs that are able to adapt to the inside?

Curious to see if Rufus can play an OLB spot at his size; I think he's more of a 43 DE, but we'll see... And we also signed two polished ILB via UDFA in Kevin Reddick (Solid Pedigree) and Eric Martin (Great Motor)... There's also Chamberlain, coming off a lost season to injury, but was a Spagnuolo signing and may move on to a 43 defense team... |

Re: Saints Depth Chart 2013
Why do I get the feeling that we're going to bounce Martez around at different positions every year and we'll never see his true potential? That's why I'm really hoping he excels this year as the Sam and we have a badass to be proud of for years to come!

Re: Saints Depth Chart 2013
Chris, going to the 34 is a step in the right direction for the team and for Martez...

The only players not better (on paper) are Smith, Vilma and Lofton. And it remains to be seen if they actually play worse in our version of the 3-4. Who knows... they may even play better. |
