this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; The signs are here folks. We are completely revamping the entire defense. It may seem harsh now, but its time to get younger and faster. Yes I understand the importance of Veteran leadership but we still have guys in place ...

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
Lofton's a great guy and his professionalism will be missed, but it's time to usher in the Mason Foster and Stephone Anthony era at ILB!

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
just pick a tape guys, lofton got owned 75% of the time in running sits. he was always to late to fill the gap, or nowhere to be seen on passing plays, I know he played his heart out hurt, just the game went by him. pushing rbs out of bounds 8-9 yards pass the line. we need speed to the outside ...... not all his fault with the interior line getting handled when tired.

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
O.K. I've got to agree with Danno on the 3-4 D. Lofton was the D's captain, calling plays and sets. He was the staple. I don't know who we will draft and who we might get as FA at the lb. positions but with Gallette, Ediboli, Harrelson, Powell, Hawthorn, Knox and Humber I expect 4 maybe 5 of those guys to make it, that leaves 3 or 4 more lb.'s that will have to be picked up to make a total of 8 in a 3-4 set. I look for the Saints to draft at least 1 or 2 and pick up 1 or 2 as FA. Also looking at the front 3 I wouldn't be suprized to see the heavy guys that can occupy multiple blockers stay and the lighter guys go. I sill believe we get another NT in the draft.

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
Looking through the FA ILB this morning and not msny three down types there. Mason is the standout.
I cant see Rex letting him get away after not getting Harris but what about Spikes?. I know he is best as a 2 down guy but he is good against the run. Id be very wary of giving McClain either a prominent role leading thr defense or a multiyear deal. Id really like to pick up a pair of ILB in the draft now. |

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
The #1 ILB, Eric Kendricks will be there in the late 1st. #2/3, Benardrick McKinney and Denzel Perryman should be there when we pick in the 2nd. I really see a ILB being picked in one of the first two rds.

Re: Curtis Lofton Released
My hope is that Cooper falls to us at 13,the Browns decide to move up to pick back to back and give us a second rounder to move back to 19.
1)Kendricks 2)Anthony 3)OL |
