Fahkir Brown-He'll show up. He just wanted to make a statement.

CB Jason Craft has had an exceptional offseason and has turned up his intensity. Fahkir Brown's absence and McKenzie's injury have opened up a lot of time for Craft to be the focus of the coaching staff.

Great news. And if Brown or McKenzie get hurt, he could stop the bleeding for a while. craft is now 2 years removed from an ACL. Its time for him to step up.

Second round pick Josh Bullocks plays extremely fast an is a ballhawk in practice, but won't see the starting lineup this season barring injury. He will get a lot of playing time on passing downs, he's just too good to keep out of dime sets.

If we can get teams in 3rd and long, we're set. The problem has been forcing 3rd and longs.

Colby Bockwoldt who is a new man with a newly chiseled NFL-caliber physique. Bockwoldt was fast but lacked strength last year, and that has been the focus of his offseason.

Is there a more exciting, intriguing prospect on this team?

James Allen has a rock-solid grip on the strong side job.

I hope this is because he's looked good, not because of the obvious...which is his only real competition is Sedrick Hodge.

2004 5th round pick Rodney Leisle put on 15 pounds of muscle and has really improved from that standpoint but still isn't starting material right now.

I sure hope he's ready by week one, cause we don't have much else.

Barring unforeseen developments, Green should win the job.

Uh-oh. Worst news I've read yet. But who woulda thunk our RDT was gonna be our main weakness?

Jacox is in much better shape this offseason and the Saints hope his extra effort carries through to the regular season.

Kinda wish he'd made the extra effort last year.

Nate Poole has decent speed, nice size and terrific hands and a real shot at sticking on the roster.

Oh yeah, a faster Wille Jackson. Thats EXACTLY what I was hoping for. Man I hope he makes this team. That description is exactly what this team has NOT had since Willie left.

Deuce McAllister is one of the highlights of the entire offseason, if not the highlight. He has taken his conditioning to a new level and is in great shape.

Hmmm. Interesting comment.
