Saints position outlook: New Orleans could justify adding more talent at linebacker

02-19-2018, 11:58 PM

The failure on Stephone Anthony definitely kept this team from the Superbowl this past season...

Anthony's failure to progress at NFL level, Joe Vitt's coaching incompetence, Payton's procrastination in making coaching changes, Dennis Allen's inability to build a defense to take advantage of Anthony's skill set...

But Anthony had a standout rookie season, then flopped; Saints aren't talking, Anthony's not talking...

Whatever the problem is, it better get fixed before we spend another pick on a MIKE Backer that we desperately need to anchor this offense...

Starting at 2:53 ... that was a beautiful move.

That's a big dude. 6'4" and he has bulked up to 250. He could level a TE no problem.

Yes. Aaron Rodgers dropped into the 20's, so anything is possible.

We better take BPA at 27. Smith would be that BPA if he fell.

Wait till this time next year and I'll tell you "Who they should have signed...."
