The Saints have whiffed on the Center position for the last 4 years. Well this season it finally caught up to them. They had 5 chances to draft a Center and they passed on all of them. This time around there are no if's, ands or butts about it, they need to draft a Center. As for the defense, they got their butts handed to them and rightfully so. Some of them ate the cheese and got what they deserved. They need to keep their mouths shut and let their playing do the talking. Could some of the positions be upgraded? Absolutely. Hopefully this season taught them a lesson.
