Payton is still very young, he could be our coach for another 15 years.

On another note; what about Lelito at center? He has the size for the position and from a blocking stand-point I see him as an upgrade over DLP. Center might be a good fit for Lelito, but is that a hard transition to make?- it seems natural to me.

I think the Saints should let all three of them walk, Brown who is terrible, DLP who got pushed around like a little kid, and Strief who is too slow. Brown's replacement is already playing, Saints can draft a center and another faster RT tackle may already be on the roster. Saints have Lelito, Jones, and that new guy they brought in. His name escapes me at the moment. All three can be replaced with better.
