Dizz, I think today's NFL is all about fit and resource allocation.

Combine just the right amount of high priced studs with the appropriate amount of role players on both sides of the ball and you have the recipe for success.

I think most teams that fail are trying to put square pegs in round holes.

The Patriots are notorious for placing square pegs in square holes, and round pegs in round holes. I know its easier said than done, but thats how you win today and stay under the cap.

Pick a system and acquire players that fit that system. No one can argue with the Patriots success doing just that.

That's why Rob Ryans D worked so well in year 1, we had players that fit his scheme

Vaccaro would play in the slot and match up against TE's
Junior and Cam could pin their ears back and attack
Jabari and Keenan Lewis could both lock down their guy in man coverage which meant we were able to blitz with more security and effectiveness.

Let's just hope Dennis Allen has a plan and it gets implemented well!

I agree Danno. The Saints are having a fit trying to allocate any kind of resources.
