We sure need some healthy bodies at that position.

I assume this is a follow-up substitute instead of bringing guys in. Your scouts should do the heavy lifting, then you got the combine interviews, and this should be the final step.

Due diligence. Still if Hebert, Love or an OL falls to us we’ll surely take 1 of em over an LB

Whoa! Weaver runs a 4.76 forty. I'm not a fan of the super slow LBs.

Sedrick Hodge LoL. It’s all about instincts @ LB

Neither of these guys would be considered in the 1st round.

It’s certainly not as fast as you want, but it’s not “super” slow.

On most Draft Big Boards these are Day 3 LBer's. They also had facetime meeting with Mykal Walker from Fresno State. So are they going to get two LBer's or just one on day three?

Well... the Saints have a history of drafting players they interview at the Senior Bowl... and at this past Senior Bowl, they had a meeting Zack Baun.

Please no more project LBs.

You ain't just whistling dixie.

After Demario, we got hopes, wishes and dreams.

LB is "crucial". (Tip of the cap and condolences to the Hebert family).

Davion Taylor reminds me a bit of Fred Warner. Smaller, faster coverage backer. Wouldn’t mind him in the 5th round or later

Not should you be.

Darius Leonard, last years defensive rookie of the year and pro bowler ran a 4.70 and a 4.68.
