How do you see the first two games of the Saints’ season?

The other thing it does point to, is that to have any kind of success in the NFL of today you have to have a team depth better then that of a small puddle, and a coach that has the ability to get the best out of his players. We are seriously deficient in both categories.

Part of that is because we use draft picks to move up and miss on other picks. I think out of all of the OL depth guys we’ve used during this mess, Saldeveri and young are the only ones we’ve drafted. Saldeveri was drafted to be a starter at LG and in year two, he ended up being the 3rd or 4th guy we turned to at LG. Young was a solid backup at tackle last year but at guard, not so much. We need to draft better. The “we trade our picks because our team is too good for all of those guys to make the team” isn’t going to cut it anymore. Draft better players and they’ll make the team.
