Saints pursuing trade for Ronald Leary

It looks to me like we can't get by with our current guards. I hope that we can resolve this soon. I'm worried about the guard position. Especially with Peat playing LT.

Peat should be getting reps. at G. He already plays LT at a good level now and no question he will step in if Armstead goes down but what do we have behind Peat to take his place at G. We seem to have 2 LT(Peat and Armstead) with 2 C (Unger and Lelito) with little to no depth at G ( either spot) and little to no depth behind Strief at RT.

Shifting all these players around means we don't have a solid front five on offense. We have three out of five good O-line players and with Armstead out that means we have two out of five solid starters with virtually no depth. So, at best we have 3/5 of a line and currently we have 2/5 of a line. I'm not comfortable in the least.

I believe that the FO is waiting for a team with a deep line to cut players or possibly make a trade, but for crying out loud for this fan it is scary as Hell!
