Having those two guys back on the field again will be nice. Now if only we can get Browner OFF the field...

Jeff Ireland knows this guy is a player, we've got to find a way to get him healthy and keep him that way...

Need them back. DESPERATELY

I don't understand. The article says that he returned to practice. Then says "update" - that he never returned and was listed as out. Wtf?

Re: New Orleans Saints LB Dannell Ellerbe back at practice Wednesday
 

He probably got hurt by those camera flashes during media viewing period.

If he could just stay healthy our LB'ers would be much improved. He's the real deal.

Yeah I've noticed a definite difference (for the better) when Ellerbe is on the field. He's a stud. Hope he can stay that way!!

Kikaha, Anthony and Ellerbe have been playing their hearts out.
They haven't gotten any help.
I hope they can stay healthy so we can build around them.
Nice core in the middle.
They need help in front of them and behind them.

Really we just need Keenan Lewis to get fully healthy as well as Ellerbe. A back seven like this could be phenomenal:

WLB- Ellerbe
MLB- Anthony
SLB- Kikaha

CB1- Lewis
CB2- Breaux
FS- Byrd
SS- Vacarro

If we could finally see that mythical group of starters playing together then the weak link is definitely the D-Line. We need a pass rushing DT so desperately bad. How many of our defensive woes would be solved by a disruptive 3-Technique?!
