It’s hard being a Saints fan during the offseason. Especially when some of your favorite veterans are released from the team. Yesterday the Saints released both veteran WR Lance Moore and versatile RB Darren Sproles. With the loss of these two great players it’s clear to see two things: 1.) The Saints are committed to […]
While watching the NFL Combine today my eyes were opened even further to a name that I’ve heard all year long in college football. Pittsburgh DT Aaron Donald. The 6’0″ 285lbs lineman set several scouts’ ablaze by running an extremely impressive 4.68 40 yard dash. Of course that was the undercard to the Jadaveon Clowney […]
With the NFL Combine only a few days away, I think it’s time to put out my first official Saints Mock Draft. Mind you, this is pre-combine and based on current needs of the New Orleans Saints and the priority that they should be addressed. This is a straight mock draft, meaning no trades or […]
I’ve been hearing a lot about my outlook on the draft. People have been saying “Brandan, all you’re looking at is defense, defense, defense. What about the Saints offense? That’s what let them down last year.” Well, let me answer that with this: Look at what who the Super Bowl. A team predicated on defense. […]
At 6’6″ 325lbs Virginia senior OT Morgan Moses is the ideal size to replace Zach Strief as the starting RT for the Saints. Moses is ranked as one of the top Offensive Tackles coming out of college this year. Strange to hear that being that we rarely did not hear any mention of his name […]
In the past few days I’ve come across several discussions about who the Saints need to pick up in free agency. I’ve heard some ridiculous answers lately. Alshon Jeffery? Alterraun Verner? Vontae Davis? Ben Tate? Brian Orakpo? C’mon Who Dat Nation lets be a little more realistic. Sure those guys would be nice, but they’re […]
Well if the Super Bowl taught us anything, it’s that defensive speed and tenacity kills and wins championships. The old adage stood tall as the Seahawks routed the Broncos 43-8, mainly on the backs of their defense, and the speed of those ridiculous defensive ends that absolutely overwhelmed the Broncos offensive line. I digress, the […]
Who Dat Nation! Don’t miss Drew Brees tonight on David Letterman’s late night show, which airs 10:35 CT. I’m sure the Saints QB will talk a little about his Pro-Bowl experience and how the defense were all over every down he had the ball. It’s no surprise that Sean Payton was missed heavily in the […]
One of the most dynamic receivers the Saints have ever had, is Jimmy Graham. Brees could always count on Jimmy finding his way to an open spot on the field to capitalize on essential yardage gain. I mean come on now, who wouldn’t want to have a receiver like Graham on their team? You never […]
Even after a great season and an immensely improved defense, the New Orleans Saints still have some holes to fill on that side of the ball. The most apparent is that at CB opposite free agent acquisition Keenan Lewis. This is where TCU CB Jason Verrett comes into play. Verrett may not have the size […]
