Which Saints player on IR would you bring back?
 
The link list 21 players but since Kuhn has been taken off IR I didn't list him.

https://www.pro-football-reference.c...7_injuries.htm

If you could have one (1) player back 100% healthy for as long as the Saints play, who would it be?

I would want Nick Fairley

I was going to pick Klein but Teo has been doing a good job in his absence; I think the defense needs Fairley more than Klein.

I picked Klien, but only because Senio seems to not suck too much replacing people on the line.

I don't think we can bring anyone back now, can we?

Gotta go with Alex Okafor. He was such a perfect fit.

Fairley, Okafor, Rankins and Jordan on the line together woulda been a lotta fun to watch.

Without a doubt, Nick Fairley. Other than him, Okafor.

Do not fall into the media mistakes. Tao was our two down run stopper at MLB. Now playing 3 downs instead of his 2 downs.

Klien was our two down SLB and our third down MLB, who is now replaced by Michael Mauti. I like Mauti but he is no Klien.

Fairly was a huge blow out of the gate.

Defense? Fairley, Okafor, Klein,
Offense? Fleener and Peat.

I want our starters back

Doug Atkins! We'll know exactly how the Vikings will feel if they win!

Mauti should be relegated to special teams only.

I'd like to see more of Travis Feeny on Sunday. He closed on Fig Newton in a hurry.

I don't know I think our O line could be in trouble more than our D. Peat?

I say Peat because we are in trouble if 1 injury happens. Armstead comes to mind first.

I changed my vote from Okafor to Fairley. I thought about Klein but Teo has done a solid job. We would own the line of scrimmage with a healthy Fairley I believe.

Klein or Okafor no doubt. I’m that order. Then Vacarro and Fairly. We have seemed to do fine when everyone else was out.

I didn’t list him because we really have no idea how our defense would look with him in it. They knew they were going to go ahead without him early on.
Our run defense took a huge step back as soon as Klein went out.
Same thing with Vaccaro. Secondary just hasn’t been the same .
Olsen would not have been as open with him in it.

Peat hurts but we have done well with plug and play along the line all year but we have zero options if/when Armstead or someone else goes down

Breaux would have gotten hurt again and we really still don’t know if he’s all that good and he’s a penalty machine. Crawly is better.

Analzone looked to show promise but he probably would be on IR again anyway. Don’t think he will make it long term

Streif hurt but I don’t think he or Rami would have developed as well if he had played and our line wound up just as good and more versatile without him

I think some of these injuries wound up to be a blessing in disguise.

We really feel the impact of Klein and Vacarro out.

Has to be peat or okfafor. We need our running game to be on point these next two weeks. I worry without peat it won’t be.
