re: Saints sign Tackle Jason Smith

It has been discussed here and written about in several articles if I remember right how the guards and the center are very important to Drew. He likes to step up in the pocket and not roll to either tackle to buy some time.
The Saints o-line and Brees are very specific about his throwing lanes the guards must make because of his lack of height. This is why we have a ton more money invested in guards as you say who "run block" than in our tackles and always have.
