 | Franchise Stability - blueslover on 5/1/13 at 11:19 am Yes, it's the golden age of Saints football. Besides winning and success it is cool to be set as a franchise. Ancient Saints teams were a veritable turnstile for both personnel and staff.

 | Who Dat Dish Mock - blueslover on 4/24/13 at 10:59 am [b]First round (No. 15 overall) — Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia[/b]
The writing is beginning to solidify with this pick. If things go as we think they will, the Saints will have a shot at one of the best pure pass-rusher available in this year’s draft.
There’s no doubt Jarvis Jones will be one of the...

At 6-1, 210 pounds, Rhodes ran a strong 4.43 40-yard-dash at the Combine and jumps off the screen in his game tape. He’s a big, fast physical specimen who can play right from the get-go. Though raw, he could help a defense that gave ...

LUKE JOECKEL OTTEXAS A&M
I don't know what more we can say about this guy. Of the offensive line prospects, Joeckel is probably the most ready to play in the NFL. He has the mental toughness to succeed from the get-go.
