Could??? I’ve been banging my hands on the table for what, 7 years now?

Yep. Gotta get a sideline to sideline assassin. Klein, Robertson and Teo are nice pieces but we need a dawg with speed in the middle.

Saints have done a great job of improving the talent at the MLB using the Free Agency, and that trend continues...

But when you look at what's available in Free Agency, there's not really an improvement to what we have...

And I wouldn't be suprised if we re-sign Gerald Hodges and spend one or even two draft picks on linebackers...

Free Agents Zach Brown, Nigel Bradham, Damario Davis, Todd Davis, Brian Cushing are upgrades and improve the area with speed.

No way the Saints FA should be content with our current group of linebackers.

Fred Warner (BYU) could be a terrific mid-round weak side LB.

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