The 2013 season started last week, and the New Orleans Saints started to take steps to try and rebuild a struggling defense.
But a major development occurred on the offensive side of the ball as the Saints lost one of the top left tackles in the NFC.
Losing offensive tackle Jermon Bushrod in free agency hurts, and there is no debate on this issue. Bushrod was good at protecting Drew Brees' blind side, and he also was a major factor in the running game.
Everyone knew that if the Saints couldn't sign Bushrod that the Chicago Bears would make the big money play for him.
The Bears did just that less than 24 hours into the process and signed the two-time Pro Bowler to a five-year deal worth $35.9 million.
