Re: Analyzing Saints depth chart: Offense

1) WR (playmaking receiver/ returner)
2) LB/DE (pass rushing type... you can never have enough of these types)
3) CB (I still think we will be fine with PRob and White)
4) C (DLP or Goodwin is whom I guess we can expect FA)
5) RB (In the draft DeAnthony Thomas??? In open space he can be a playmaker)
6) T (Depth outside of Harris)
7) DT (Perhaps I'm under rating the need here. Again you can never have enough talent on the defensive front.)

Re: Analyzing Saints depth chart: Offense

I don't think the draft is the place to fill a hole at C.B. In fact the thought of a rookie corner always sends chills up my spine. If there is one in the first round who has the potential to be a quality starter down the road then go ahead and draft him. But don't count on him to be anything other than a spot player. We need another decent veteran to start across from Lewis. Maybe Robinson is that guy. Maybe not.

Pretty much everything I said about rookie C.B.s applies to rookie WRs. They don't necessarily hurt you as much but they don't usually help that much either.

Of course there are always exceptions.

Oh yeah, we need a good young kicker too.

On Offense we need:
1.) WR
2.)Center
3.) RB(depth)
4.)OG/OT

Re: Analyzing Saints depth chart: Offense

are they the dome patrol? heck no that unit is one of the all time greatest ever assembled in the nFL.

What they are is solid. they were moving that way before spaz and the are still moving in the right direction today.

thank god spaz killed us with ideology and not with player changes.

But to get from the super bowl days the saints had to make some serious changes at the expense of the offense. the offense is at it's lowest point ever under SP. time to address this issue is now. no more cute games on OL. Drew was on his back more last year than any year here that is not good.

Drew must be protected if he goes down so does the season

Re: Analyzing Saints depth chart: Offense

This draft will be among the deepest ever overall, but especially for its wide receivers...

The Saints should target a wide receiver in the second round as that talent they'd select would be a first round draft level in any other draft...

They could look to some depth along the offensive line...

We have glaring needs on defense in the LB corps to make it truly elite and championship worthy...

But on offense, a running back would be a wise edition as we've only two running backs contracted past next season...

I'll be happy if they draft a LB and CB and the rest offense. They're will be some that will be UDFA's.

Re: Analyzing Saints depth chart: Offense

This is going to be an offensive weapon heavy draft.

At the time of this posting we have 8 CBs on the roster, at least 3 of which are starters.

Lewis
White
Robinson
Wade
Davis
Sweeting
Fredrick
Brooks

The problem is Lewis is the only one that has proven he belongs on the field.
In my humble opinion we need to draft a WR, CB, and center in the first three rounds. I also feel like we need to address OT, LB'ers and the safety position to give us some much needed depth. It's looking like we may need another couple of guards/OT to shore up the O-line too.
