I'm not really worried about the rest of the defense. Barring injuries the D-Line is solid and the secondary can be top-tier.

Ellerbe is hands down our best LB, he will be the WLB if healthy.

MLB/SLB are up fro grabs, and if you look at the contracts dished out the Saints are banking on Klein to take the MLB spot.

Anthony is likely cut before the season-- I haven't seen or heard of anything leading me to believe he'll improve.

Teo is my hope for the SLB spot with Robertson being a very good back up that can play every LB position well.
