Find guys who can get there in a hurry and arrive with bad intentions.
Broncos Defensive Linemen are more physical, play stronger; they run a 3-4 and their outside linebackers are incredibly fast, strong, violent as our Dome Patrol LBers were...

Noticed how a good TE (Greg Olsen) was almost a non factor as was Stewart even before he was injured? Forced em into 2nd/3rd & long, then that blitz came with a vengeance.

Wade Phillips did much to nothing up here in Deathstar country as a HC, however as a defensive coordinator he is amongst the best. Masterful defensive game plan.

Retool that defense with some impact players and Brees can get us back to where we belong.

True. And their ILB'ers and secondary don't miss a lick either. Wade Phillips has a tuned machine going strong.

John Elway deserves as much if not more of the credit for managing the cap and getting the right guys for that front seven...

Disclaimer: I still don't like John Elway, but I respect the incredible job he's done...

Any reason why you left Ben Watson off the TE's?

Ben Watson is currently an Unrestricted Free Agent...

Not listing him there apparently is having the impact I'd wished to convey...

Re: 2016 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

RECONFIGURED DEFENSE FOR A 3-4 FRONT SAINTS DEPTH CHART - 2016

Note: Thought we could see what we have already on the roster if we were to scheme our personnel in comparison to what Denver ran in the Superbowl...

We'd still need upgrades at NT and LDE and a couple of linebackers, but the front seven definitely has a "faster look" to it; we still have depth issues, but we were going to have them either way...

DEFENSE

RDE (2) Cameron Jordan, Lawrence Virgil (ERFA)

NT (2) John Jenkins, Kaleb Eulls

LDE (2) Tyeler Davison, Bobby Richardson

LEO (2) Davis Tull, Kasim Edebali

WLB (2) Dannell Ellerbe, Erik Harris

MLB (3) Stephone Anthony, Jeff Luc

SLB (2) Hau'oli Kikaha, Mike Mauti

RCB (3) Keenan Lewis, Damian Swann, P.J. Williams

FS (3) Jairus Byrd, Alden Darby

SS (2) Kenny Vaccaro, Vinnie Sunseri

LCB (2) Delvin Breaux, Brian Dixon
