QB: Brees(nuff said)


He's at the bottom of the great QB's in the league. His stuggles on the road have been frustrating and he doesn't even look like the same QB when he isn't at home. He's holding on to the ball too long at times, and taking sacks when he should throw the ball away.

quote:

RB: None are great, but they would look better with better OL play

Would love to see Ingram get more carries. He is running hard. I'm done with Sproles. He's too small and not as fast as when he came aboard. Need a younger player here.

quote:

WR: Colston continues to be solid. Everyone else is replaceable, and we could use some upgrades to talent/depth. Not as bad as people make them seem.

Would keep Colston and Stills, and that's it. They need some major talent upgrades here.

quote:

C: I don't like DLP, but he is adequate

DLP is awful and I pray he is gone.

quote:

G: IMO we are fine at guard. Evans has been off but has all the talent in the world. We knew Grubbs would be a downgrade to Nicks, but now Nicks is constantly hurt so it is a wash

Agree

quote:

T: Ugh. Gross. Serious issues here. I think Strief would be serviceable if Evans were healthy but the LT problems are glaring.

This postition is so bad it is inexcusable. Loomis and Payton did a poor job settling for players they hoped would pan out, and it's costing us the health of our franchise QB

quote:

Defense

Pretty content here. Just need some more CB depth, another big body upfront, and depth at DE and linebacker. Another safety as well when Jenkins and Harper finally leave this team.

quote:

PR: Needs serious improvement
KR: Joe Morgan?

We need a decent return man so badly. Sproles isn't good at it - lacks the size to break tackles. Moore is too slow. Maybe draft a speedy wr/rb this year who can take punts and kicks to the house on occasion.

I think we need a better ILB, and I hate to say that.

Both of you focus on the Offensive Tackle positions, particularly LT, as severe problem areas. I agree. This seems to be the Saints most severe problem, because it endangers the QB.
