Re: You're Sean Payton
It's all about the LB coach. I feel like the D-Line and secondary are in good hands with Brian Young and Aaron Glenn. We've prayed for a new LB coach for so long. I have no idea who's out there though.

Re: You're Sean Payton
I prefer Singletary for linebacker coach but if they want to try Vilma it might work. Is Ken Norton available?

Here are a few more notable names:
Jason Tarver - outside LB's 49ers (worked with DAllen in the past) Bob Babich - LB coach CHARGERS (former coordinator w/Jags) Mike Mallory - Special Teams Coach JAGUARS (ranked as high as 5th in 2015) John Pagani - defensive coordinator CHARGERS (solid LB coach) |

We're young at a lot of positions and developing these players for the future is a must in my opionion so why not get the best out there to make it happen ?

Why would they ever consider trading him, not to mention NFL trades are extremely rare? The fact is, Dennis Allen is going nowhere and the Saints will continue the conversion to the 4-3 and all other speculation is meaningless.

As far as trades go NE does it along with others. Ellerbe for Stills, Graham for Unger, it's not uncommon even for us. It may be meaningless but if we had a shot at getting Phillips or even Bradley we should, those coaches have proven track records. What does Allen have? I think we could and should do better at DC if we can now even more since the good ole boys were sent packing.
