2017 New Orleans Saints Training Camp

For some reason they stopped giving updates about who's lining up where at LB. I read somewhere that Anzalone is getting most of the first team reps at Will... Has he surpassed Anthony already?

I don't know, but I am really high on Anz if he can stay healthy. He reminds me a lot of Ellerbe. If he is healthy he is going to be a good one for us

Think the beat reporters have reached the same conclusion that we are coming to, the Saints will reveal who's gonna be where in the coming weeks...

But as I said in another post, I suspect with all the cross training for the LBers at all three spots in the base defense, we'll see different guys in their based on matchups, health, and maybe energy level during a game...

Wouldn't be surprised to see them change all three in a game the way Hockey changes a line...

Most offenses key on what a linebacker tells; so, rotating LBers may help us from keeping to show our hand to an opposing offense...

I like that. Linebacker by committee.

It would also help in keeping them fresh being able to go 100% every play.
