Haven't heard much yet. LB's really won't shine until contact is allowed.

Special team stat from 2016:

New Orleans ranked 31st in the league in kickoff returns (16.5 yards per return) and held an average starting field position at its own 27.4-yard line, which ranked 24th in the league.

I think Ginn and/or Kamara could change all of that.

That and IF our corners stay healthy. There were a couple of games we lost that could have been won at the last minute if we weren't using 3rd string backs.
