- I really like Melvin Ingram on the edge.
- LB wise, I like a guy that is not talked about much in AJ Klein. He is on a Carolina Team that is set with Keuchly in the middle. When he plays, he is very solid. He started for an injured Luke in a playoff game and recorded 15 tackles. Not saying he would be a stud, but he is only 25 and would probably come cheap.
- At CB I would love to get A.J. Bouye, but I'm not really high on anyone else at the position.
- In the middle, I wouldn't mind bringing back Nick. I would really love to see Poe in middle to push the pocket and help stop the running game

I can see someone like Branch or Sheard at DE. I think the Saints make a hard run at a CB, maybe Bouye or Ryan. I kinda doubt Zeitler ever hits the market.

I can see them making a huge splash, for a big time CB, since they were in the running for Josh Norman. And then sign a guy like Andre Branch who will come cheap and is an up and coming edge rusher.

Why did you leave Guard off this post?

Stephen Gilmore - would give you a great tandem with Breaux. PJ to the slot.

Lawrence Timmons - great MLB with a couple years left in the tank ala Vilma. Also would let Craig Robertson shift to his natural position.

Jabal Sheard - played well for the Pats and shouldn't command a huge deal. Might stay with NE for cheap tho.

Nick Fairley - resign!

Bonus: miss on Sheard or don't go passrusher in FA, go guard instead with Leary or if possible Zitler. Then DE in round one...Barnett, Thomas or Charlton and I think with players being back from injury and the new addition, you would have as good of a chance as anyone.

I think we could legitimately grab the following and get some decent bargains while overspending a bit at Guard.

Leary and Zeitler should be priorities. Spend what it takes to get them both in the fold and resign Evans to provide amazing depth and to protect Drew, while opening holes in the run game. I cannot stress enough how important adding these two is. It is the engine that led us to a SB and it could be fixed with these three moves.

Not to sound like a homer, but I would sign Kiki Mingo as my edge guy. You could get him on a very friendly contract, and he has the physical tools if not asked to do more than get after the QB.

Another "homer" but I think Mo Claiborne could be a nice, cap friendly signing that would shore us up. If we can avoid getting the whole damn secondary hurt, adding Claiborne would make this unit more than acceptable.

If you aren't sold on Anthony playing the Mike, Worillow would be a nice piece. He is coming off of consecutive injury plagued seasons, but when healthy he was very productive. He is better on passing downs, than Anthony, and still provides run support, sure tackler.

Free Agent
Larry Warford G
Melvin Ingram ED

Draft
Reuben Foster
Demarcus Walker
Dan Feeney/ Best Guard prospect

Also wouldn't mind a CB like Morris Claiborne depending on how we feel about our current corp's health and the money.

Sign Melvin Ingram and draft Reuben Foster if he falls to us and just like that we have a pretty salty linebacker pairing to go with Craig Robertson.
