Never liked the thought of having a guy in and immediately trying to change positions. Huge gamble.

Welcome to Sean Payton's Saints. He can never leave a good player where they are on D.

And what makes you think it isn't Dennis Allen and Mike Nolan making these calls ... as is their responsibility? I'd be shocked if Payton would be making LB position decisions. Player acquisition I can easily see, but not micro managing the defense to that degree.

If you remember back to when all those false accusations of "bounties" happened it became known that Payton never even stuck his head into a defensive meeting. He was always totally hands off. Now, I am sure he has more oversight these days, but not to the extreme of which you are implying. Nolan would walk in a minute if he didn't have most of the say in the matter. THAT'S why he was hired!
