I imagine we'll see Vonn Bell ditch the #48 as well.

When I played all DBs had to have Nos. in the 40s; fullbacks could wear a no. in 40s as well...

RBs were all 30s, Wide Receivers were either in 80s, Flankers, or SlotBacks wore 20s; LBs and Centers wore 50s; though some Centers and Nose Tackles could wear "00", Offensive/Defensive Tackles wore 70s, Other DL wore 90s. Offensive Guards wore 60s. QBs wore 7-19, Kickers and Punters wore 1-6.

Game has changed some...

All things being equal...

We'll keep six (6) maybe seven (7) linebackers and each LBer will have to show at least ability at two LB positions and ST play...

I would say Ellerbe, Klein, Robertson, Stupar, Anthony are safe for now...

Kikaha has to show he's healthy...

Feeney will need to have added bulk and some skills...

Te'o has to first show he's healthy and totally outplay Klein...

Bighill would have to out play Klein, Robertson, and Te'o and be a beast on ST...

If Ellerbe comes in achy/injured and with his cap hit, then he could be in trouble...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

SLB (2) Draft

MLB (2) 58 - A.J. Klein,

WLB (2) 52 - Craig Robertson,

Dancing on the roster bubble

50 - Stephone Anthony,
59 - Dannell Ellerbe,
44 - Hau'oli Kikaha
42 - Travis Feeney
54 - Nate Stupar,
00 - Manti Te'o,
00 - Adam Bighill

I fear the saints will go all out for Tyus Bowser Just like they did for Peat, Anthony, Bell and Thomas
