In passing situations that would be outstanding, I just don't think Kikaha can hold the edge against the run... Maybe he is adding a bit of weight though.

Payton said he would be used as the "Jack" DE, the position Jordan played last year.

The edge DE pass rusher is already on the roster.

I don't recall him stating that specifically. I do remember him saying that he'll be used more on the LOS.

"Saints head coach Sean Payton confirmed that thought process at the owner’s meeting this past Tuesday, saying that Kikaha could see a lot of action at the “Jack” defensive end spot, where Cam Jordan played last year."

Re: Michael Thomas!!

And Galette before Jordan. I'm pretty geeked about the draft so far.
Colston's replacement. The new Norman Hand. Now the Jairus Bird we wanted.

Sorry... but I don't believe Payton knows how to draft.

That should suit him well. he excels at attacking and getting through the wash and into the back field.
