this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; The addition of free agent RT Jermane Mayberry fills the lone major hole in the starting lineup. The Saints return 21 of 22 starters from last season, so right tackle was the only hole to fill. Though he played right ...

Oh please get us a real RT! I really hope they don\'t do this. Why, oh why, would we bank on a guy who everyone can see isn\'t suited for RT!? C\'mon guys get a freakin real RT; there are still plenty left who don\'t suck. Maybe they will play for Brown in the first round after all?

Well it looks as if we might pick one in the draft, if they follow this BPA approach to the draft. I just am totally mystified as to why this team refuses AT ALL to prioritze the LB position.

You\'re right 4ss. I should calm down about this. It is just that all the reports I\'ve read say this guy\'s pass blocking game isn\'t all that. He\'s big and unagile in space. Maybe I\'m just being nervous.
I agree that he is an improvement. However, why not improve more and get ANOTHER guy who has more experience at OT? There are still a bunch of them sitting around; their price tag should be getting smaller. |

I\'m with you Kool. 4 games in his career at RT and injuries the past two years does not make me feel overly excited. It seems the focus is to move him to RT, where like you said, his mobility in space has been questioned,
