We lost talent on both sides of the ball? Who did we lose on defense? Greer is the only one that comes to mind as being semi-important to the Saints last year, and by the end of the season White was playing better than Greer had been.

Now I won't deny Moore and Sproles are losses on offense, but how many times have we reloaded those positions over the years? We replaced Joe Horn with David Patten, then replaced Patten with Lance. Didn't miss a beat. Replaced Bush with Sproles, didn't miss a beat. Replaced Mike Bell with Ivory, same thing; Ivory with Robinson, Stinchcomb with Strief, Goodwin with DLP. Same deal over and over. You would think people would understand by now how this stuff works.

Recently read an article from NFL.com about how the NFC South is becoming the most balanced division in the NFL. I might have felt that way at the beginning of the off-season after the changes Tampa made to the coaching staff, but with free agency it looks to me like we have improved much more than Atlanta and Carolina. Hopefully the Jimmy Contract is figured out sooner rather than later so we can get a better idea of the cap situation around the draft.

Besides being a little harsh on Greer you nailed it.
