Re: Five good questions with New Orleans Saints blogger
I still dont get why so many reporters feel we are trying to force a team of 4-3 personnel into a 3-4 system.
The front three looks far more suited to a 3-4.Plenty og question marks over the LB byt thats not been helped by injuries to many starters. Will Smith wasnt producing at DE either and most likely won't start at OLB.With limited cap space it was always going to take two offseasons to get the right mix of players. But looking past this season and 3-4 defense with a front three of Hicks-Jenkins and Jordan looks very disruptive and if Foster, Johnson, Walker can provide good rotation then that is a talented front thsts best years are ahead of them. Add another young CB/FS next year and its not the worst group to be moving forward with.The big question is at LB but again next years draft could fix sone issues. Next years draft is ideal for the Saints imo, some great talent there at position that are not at the top of the needs table.It could easily lead to players slipping at positions of need. |
"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Re: Five good questions with New Orleans Saints blogger
Butler, Hicks, Jordan, Galette, JJenkins, Coleman, Reddick, Foster, and Wilson are all better suited for a 3-4 than a 4-3.
Bunkley, TJohnson, Walker, CThomas, Richardson, RJohnson, Martin, and Hawthorne are suited for either. The only players we have that I think are better suited for a 4-3 are Smith, Vilma, Lofton, and Herring. |

Re: Five good questions with New Orleans Saints blogger
Well everything we read about Smith trying to play LB is certainly consistent.
