DT Nathan Shepherd restructures

he was actually decent
Decent enough to not upgrade with better talent if possible?

The Saints ranked 27th in rush defense which is horrid...the last eight games, Saints gave up over 150 yards a game on the ground, which was LAST in the NFL.

If the Saints could upgrade at DT then they should do so even if that means cutting Saunders (save 1.6 million) or Shepard (5.4 million hit).
