Without Brees we'll need a lot more weapons than we currently have.

This draft is deep with D-linemen. We can still draft some talented defenders from the 2nd round on.

Oh, and numerous folks are talking defense. DE's DT's OLB's, CB's. Its not like defense isn't being discussed.

I disagree; We are in win now mode with Drew only having a couple of seasons left. Build a defense so we can win now and will still take a lot of the pressure off a new QB in the future...
