Butler was also proven to be very effective when called upon in Dallas. Again, it remains to be seen if he can be a full timer though. Wilson has shown flashes, but last years DE experiment is over and he moves back to OLB where he's graded fairly well. I think he can be a very good rush backer. I think we have the numbers to throw at it and at least one or two should be effective enough to compliment our offense. On paper, this looks like the best squad we've ever had under Payton. |

Re: 2013 Needs for the No Saints (Post Draft)
I have said this on multiple posts but I truly believe Wilson will become a BEAST under The Big Lebowski's 3 -4 system & Jordan will too. This may be the season where teams actually have to 'game plan' for certain guys coming off the edge.

Re: 2013 Needs for the No Saints (Post Draft)
I agree, we are loaded with projects that show potential. However none have yet shown the ability to be quality starters. No disruptive forces on the DL and no consistant quality pass rushers that can play 3 downs. That concerns me more than what any other team did in the draft.
