Max Unger brings leadership, championship experience to New Orleans Saints offensive line
New Orleans Saints center Max Unger was never going to be happy about being traded away from Super Bowl-contending Seattle Seahawks, where he'd made good friends and become an established leader during his first six NFL seasons.
He's even used the word "bummed" to describe his reaction to the offseason phone call informing him he'd been shipped to New Orleans, along with the Seahawks' first-round draft choice, in exchange for star tight end Jimmy Graham. Yet Unger said it hasn't taken him long to appreciate how he could benefit personally and professionally from a new environment — particularly one that includes star quarterback Drew Brees. "It was cool to get to move to a new part of the country and go to a franchise that's won a heck of a lot of games," Unger said.

He will probably tank it when we play the Seahawks.

We needed an All Pro Center more than an All Pro Tight End.

Re: Max Unger brings leadership, championship experience to New Orleans Saints offensive line
Unger has me really excited. It is so important for the offensive line as a group to have a cerebral center making all the calls since he has the best position to see the whole defensive box.
If that part fails most everything else becomes a lot harder to do on the line. |

Tim Lelito will benefit from him the most. However, the entire O-line just had a major upgrade.
