I think Anzalone is a great back up to Ellerbe. If we can limit Ellerbe's snaps he might make it through a whole season while Anzalone learns the ropes to take over for him down the road or step in if Ellerbe gets injured.(likely)

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

In Sean Payton's post draft interview, he stated that he thinks we have a LOT of linebackers with different strengths & we won't be in a bad situation if we lose one or two due to injury. He sounded pretty high on selecting Anzalone & if Ellerbe should beat him out at WLB, they will slide him over to SAM.

Camp will be fierce with competition this year.

So some LBers may see more snaps in games than others, and that will be the nature of Saints Defense moving forward...

Usually you acquire better pass rushers to help your DBs, it seems Payton is trying to improve the DBs and get coverage sacks...

Well, I believe he was only invited and not necessarily extended a contract at this time....

But, I'm not sure Saints have done all their league notifications as we're showing 90+...
