Either the Saints have had a complete lack of talent at LB, and/or the LB coaching has been horrible the last several years. A complete lack of production outside of Vilma.

If I remember correctly Powell had talent but was drafted later because of injury concerns. He should be ready to roll and contribute this year.

See Powell is the wild card in the OLB corps...

Former Prep Player of the Year (2010) as an OLB/DE and Tight End...

He was the U.S. Army All-American Bowl MVP (also in 2010)...

The NFL prototype talent/size is there, 6' 3" at 237 lbs...

If he comes on, then you can rotate Davis Tull inside to the WLB and you instantly have a young, athletic 3-4 LB corps with four years to play together...

Don't forget Fujuta...

There have been a few threads with strong opinions on Joe Vitt and his abilities to develop players...

It can't be denied that the Saints have failed to develop LBers under Payton's tour of duty...

But I look forward to Dennis Allen's "sphere of influence" extending to the LBers and developing the promising talent we've drafted/signed...

And with Jeff Ireland among the troops, we WILL have at least one new linebacker to develop each season...
