Not because the LBs were too small. Maybe that'll be the reason if the bad rush defense continues this year, but it was not why we suck stopping the run recently.

March...

Gotta disagree...

I think we gotta stay with getting bigger on the defensive line and continue with bigger linebackers...

Reading reports from Miami's Pro Day earlier and there are two storylines: First, Sean Payton is in love with Phillip Dorsett. Second, Denzel Perryman injured his hamstring but no official word on severity yet... Some rumors it may be significant.

Phillip Dorset 5-foot-10 and 184 pounds ran a 4.25 40 dam but what happens when a nfl safety nails him to dead stop at that 4.25. i guess we are thinking of quick screening the nfl to death till he and cook get knocked out.

Have we moved on from Toon & Coleman ?

Cant say i like the idea of another midget WR

We are in a division of 6ft CBs and massive WRs and we are getting smaller

Tall CB's can't typically hang with the Brandin Cooks types.

Gimme four Steve Smiths and I stomp your tall ass CB's all day long. And I hate that M***** F***** as much as any WR in the league.

Most teams are trending toward big CB's who have more trouble flipping their hips. I'd counter that with shifty speed demons.

I think we would have a pretty nice balance:

Brandon Coleman 6'6"
Marques Colston 6'4"
Nick Toon 6'4"
Seantavious Jones 6'3"
Brandin Cooks 5'10"
Jalen Saunders 5'9"

Then you add the TE's and I don't think adding another 5'10" receiver like Dorsett would hurt.

yeah who fights and runs away lives to fight another day.

In light of the Phillip Dorsett love we're showing... Here's a 3 round mock where we trade up in the 2nd round to land him if he's still available when Chicago is on the clock. It only costs us the second of our 3rd round picks.

R1P13 Danny Shelton DT Washington
R1P31 Stephone Anthony ILB Clemson
R2P7 **Saints trade picks 44 and 78 to Chicago** Phillip Dorsett WR Miami
R3P11 Ali Marpet G Hobart
