I'm getting there.

still a little pissed about taking the cheese last year.

Some bold moves so far and I really like bringing in Max Unger, CJ Spiller.

Browner will bring an attitude to the secondary and hopefully Byrd can find his form again.

seems like the rest of the NFC South has been awfully quiet so far this off season too.

wait, what is this positivity? I'm not very accustomed to seeing that here at TD. You sure you in the right place boy? People don't take kindly to your type around here

My hopes are quite guarded, after the letdown that was 2014.

Definitely, it really feels like the 06' season.

I ain't falling for that shite again. After last year, my hopes are definitely shaky. I'll wait till the preseason to set my expectations. They say the preseason is not indicative of how the year will turnout but with the Saints you can usually tell early of how the team will look. And that Saints defense has me questioning if this will be a winning team.

No way.

I haven't seen too much to make me think next year will be terribly different from last year.
Mostly because it's too early.

Need to see how the draft pans out before I have an opinion

I get the feeling we're either going to do really well or really bad. Either at least the conference championship or not make the playoffs.

If they take an OLine and two DLine/rush OLB, one early, my enthusiasm will go up. Successful teams play well in the trenches. We know what the Offense is capable of when there is good OLine play. And the secondary has to be better if Browner, Lewis, Vacarro and Byrd stay healthy.
My only huge question mark will come at ILB and the WR positions. Hopefully they can find guys to contribute right away in the draft.

We will need major contributions from at least 3-4 draft picks to do anything of note. People keep talking about linebacker and pass rusher but we've always been an offense first team. There are major question marks on the interior of our o line, at wr(we currently only have 3 with any kind of experience), and in how we are going to replace graham.

Positives are hopefully our center play will be the best it's been in years,we have a gamebreaker out of the backfield which is absolutely critical for our receiving game, Brees won't go into the season with his abdominal injury, we seem to be collectively pissed and not under the fog of Complacency.

Negatives we have no idea what's happening at one guard sport yet, in no way shape or form do I trust colston, cooks, Toon, Hill to dominate in a 09/11 fashion at this point we need at least 2 more viable guys in the mix including an early draft pick. It would then be a lot to expect them to come in and play very cohesively in this offense.

We shall see but I think 8-8 or 9-7 likely

I like our chances if we can find a legit starter at guard and ILB in the draft. A 3rd WR would also help a lot. Those are our 3 biggest needs and should make us a playoff team imo. Any other legit players out of the draft will be icing on the cake(Another pass rusher besides Galette would also help). This draft could make us a great team if we hit our picks.

If guys like Cam, Hicks, Galette, and Vaccaro return to 2013 form then that's a huge step in the right direction. Lack of production from guys they were counting on really hurt last year.

I think we will do well. I just get the feeling that some needed house cleaning was done and feel 06ish to me.

I believe we will have a more focused and disciplined team than we had last year. That alone will earn us a few more wins.

I like what we did in free agency, and think we will draft for immediate impact players. I predict us to have a better record than last year and we will make the playoffs and win the South (which will be poor again this year)
