Solid vet. Will never be spectacular. But, he's better than every other LB on the Saints roster except Anthony. You can win with solid. You can't win with putrid.

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

Don't want him. Rather have Whitehead from Detroit. He's good against the run, good in coverage, younger and probably cheaper.

I very badly wanted us to draft Animal Jr., so I'm very excited to see he's coming in for a visit. I think this is a big deal.

A change of scenery does wonders

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

Would he back up Anthony or take Ellerbe' spot?

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

Ellerbe is a WLB so im sure this is a back up/ rotation move.

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

Doesn't he play Anthony's spot?

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

That's what I thought, why stunt Anthony's development as a player for a spot we don't really need to address, outside backer is much more of a need.

If we start moving Anthony around to make room for Laurinitus then when it fails the whole "square peg round hole" debate will start all over again and we'll all ask why we made an MLB move to OLB.

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

I think it's safe to assume OLB will be addressed in the draft...

Re: Saints interested in LB James Laurinaitis
 

I sure do love me some LB's that can't cover... Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm. [/sarcasm]
