Are the Saints Player Personnel Soft Under Payton?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; We haven't recruited a nasty lineman like Carl Nicks since Payton came on board. I think we need a pancake flattening, defensive line pummeling, in your face nasty offensive lineman. I'm hoping that Fairley is going to bring that edge ...
