I think it was mostly "was that my job or was that your job?".

I'm excited to see him work with Payton and Ryan too.

Lofton graded near dead last in the entire NFL for MLB's last year.
I didn't realize Lofton graded almost last for MLB in NFL- and he was one of our stand out players! Wow,I don't think "embarrassing" is a strong enough word to use here....

No worries, it was all scheme related IMO.

I was just pointing out that some people use last years grades to blast some players, while ignoring similar dreadful grades on other players.

Personally I think Lofton is upper half in terms of talent, maybe top 10 as far as MLBs go.

The LB corps will be much improved this year - both in personnel and scheme - so I'm looking for Lofton to have a great year along with a much better performance from the likes of Hawthorne.

I just hope that the defensive unit doesn''t suffer any significant injuries during the offseason OTAs and the preseason!

Jenkins has never proven his value. Harper used to be good but he regressed last season - perhaps a certain portion of this is due to spags scheme.

100% agree

....I will add that I think Lofton is a good LB,but Ogletree would def. help him. Lofton and Ogletree would make a beautiful pair!

Lofton and Wilson could be a nice pair in the middle as well with Butler/Hawthorne and Galette/Vilma on the outside - Wilson could probably play that other inside position effectively.

Re: Curtis Lofton is Excited to Work with Sean Payton and Rob Ryan
 
I am actually suprised as well that Lofton graded so low in comparisson. It's a real eye opener to how bad it was when you feel as though your teams best defensive guys was still dead last.
