Why stop with those 5? I say we take a shot at Jonathan Vilma, who will be let go by the Saints this off-season.

The more competition the better, and he only adds depth to the group.

He hasn't been the same since the Jets went from the 4-3 to the 3-4, so he has no leverage when it comes to getting an average contract.

Vilma.. he played very well for the Saints this season in a 4-3... but correct he struggled in the Jets switch to the 3-4.. he has no nature position in a 3-4.. not enough length to play outside and to light to play in the inside..

I would welcome Vilma with open arms.. but he restored some value this offseason.

BTW.. he is being included in the offseason project.

Word I see is that Vilma will be resigned. The Saints have to wait until FA starts though otherwise they have to give a 2nd rounder instead of a 3rd.

Correct, it might become a head nod type deal.. but if he tests the market he might find a better situation..

But you nailed it.. the Saints will let him walk in FA.

Are you trying to say that I am over aggressive in regards to this "corps" of linebackers..

Oh.. you haven't seen aggressive yet if you are worried.. the more footage I watch of this defense the more of a frenzy I work myself into.. :lol:

Actually.. Aaron Rouse at a backer in passing situations might make alot of sense.. needs to learn to play in traffic a little better and become a little more physical with the TE's.. but he has the tools to make a heck of an in the block pass defender type.

We do have two sixth round draft choices this year. The 2nd of the two would be ideal for taking a linebacker.

Orion Martin Va. tech maybe more of a 3-4 kinda guy...

how 'bout Jason Williams, Western Illinois

First 7 picks are reserved for things we actually have a need for.

Now now.. you know Ted.. 5th,6th, and 7th round interior lineman.. why draft them higher.. :lol:

It will frost you when Ted drafts a backer day one. :lol:

BTW.. done speaking upon our linebackers other than my part of the project.. much like the olineman earlier this year.. I think I have beaten the topic to a pulp.. maybe twice over. 😉
