Surprised no threads. One of the more bashed players in this forum having a pro bowl caliber year.

This is by far his best year. I hope he can play at this level for two more years. I don't want to break up The Wall( Armstead-Peat-Unger)
Pretty sure the wall stays in place. We will have to replace Evans and Strief with some rookies. Think the team finally realized that Peat's only problem was being moved to the Right side. He's played on the Left his entire career and is on the record saying he feels most comfortable on the Left.
I think he is signed through 2017. I'm thinking they keep him around until then, but at some point you'll need to look for a legit replacement for him. I think Peat stays at LG, so it won't be him.
Landon Turner might be a year or two away from seeing the field?Zach has played exceptional. What the team plans on doing with the right side of the Oline will be very interesting to watch this offseason. Personally, I think they look for a starting RG (love you Jahri, but it may be time) and a heir apparent at RT with Zach still as the starter.
This would keep a little more continuity, only replacing one starter and it would keep from having to spend 2 large resources on the Oline. You would still have to spend a bit to get a top flight RG in free agency, but you can go with a little less valuable resource (mid round draft pick) to spend on the RT, knowing that you will most likely get a servicable 2017 out of Zach.
Zach's fine play is not only a boon for this season, but it very well may allow the Saints to spend a bit more (FA $$ or higher draft pick) on pass rush help. It's a win on multiple fronts.

Yes, Getting lucky with late round Lineman turning All-Pro is a god send. Especially when we need a franchise-caliber pass rusher/Linebacker(I hope SA is just having a sophomore slump) badly in this next draft.I completely forgot about Landon Turner. I really hope he can develop and step right in for Jahri in another season or two. That would save us a draft pick to use on another position.
