New Orleans Saints run defense plays with "swagger,'' stuffs offense in 9-on-9 goal line
Strongside linebacker Scott Fujita credited the defensive line for setting the tone.
"When you get down to goal line, it's about d-line play and how they step up and how they knock back the offensive line,'' Fujita said. "There wasn't a whole lot for anybody else to do today because they were knocking them back 3 yards off the line of scrimmage. When you do that, it makes goal line defense pretty easy.''
I hope he can bring some of that swagger with him to Cleveland.

I like the move. Last year towards the end we had no playcalller on the field. Im still hoping to keep Jackson. This definately solidifies our LB corp. Our starters are now:
Wimbley, Jackson, Barton, Fujita. We also have great depth with: Roth, Maiava, Vekune, Bowens, Trusnik

Roth's are best linebacker he'll start for sure, Im hoping Jackson signs with somebody else so we can get that 2nd rd. pick then we end up with Wimbley, Fujita, Maiava, Roth starting
Bowens, Barton, Veikune, Trusnik backing up

Matt Roth(LOLB) Coleman(LE) Rogers/or Rubin (DT) Smith(RE) Kamerion Wimbley(ROLB)
That's the projection for next year's starting lineup, assuming everyone stays, including Big Baby.

Not exactly a menacing group, but solid none the less! I definitely can get excited about the direction we are starting to move in.

I think we have the depth that we can afford to lose him for a second round pick. You can find good ILB's in the 4th and 5th rounds if needed, then you can use that 2nd rd. pick to address another positionI am not so sure I would be completely willing to give up on Jackson yet. I still think he has the potential to be a good ILB for us. Now "potential" is a dangerous word! Anyone who has coached or has been around any sort of athletics knows alot of potentially great athletes that just never reached the ability everyone thought they had. So I would side with the camp that would keep Jackson and give him a chance to play healthy and see if he can reach his potential!

why make another hole? why not use that pick to fill a diffrent hole on top of losing our best LB (yes he is better then Roth who played great a whole 5 games, Jacksons been great since he was drafted)

Roths definitely gonna start on the outside in my opinion. I think Fujitas going to be our run-stopping ILB.
Big guy, 6'5", 250, and Heckert said he can play either. I like the pick up, SMART move
Wimbley, Jackson, Fujita, and Roth would be a great group of starters. Our linebacking corps looks pretty solid. The secondary is by far our biggest problem, er... besides QB anyway.
Eric Berry would be fantasic!... Im keepin hope alive, i hope he falls. Haden worried me wih his forty time. I usually dont pay attention to that crap but over 2.5...cmon buddy, they have months to get ready. they know the drills

Don't get me wrong, i am not a big Joe Haden fan at all, truthfully don't really think he is the guy. But, many analyst have stated that his technique was horrible out of the gate when running his 40, and when you are talking tenths of a second that surely can make a huge difference. My worry with Hadden is the talk of him and how stiff he was during drills, if he is that tightly wound for the combine just what is he going to be like lining up opposite some of the recievers in just our division alone.
I think Roth showed alot in the role he played last year, I would want to see the same continue through camp before I commited to starting him.
As for Berry, I would be more than a little giddy if he fell to us at #7, He is IMO the biggest immediate impact player in the draft. You better have them laced up tight when he unloads on you!

Because I dont think its a significant drop off from Jackson to Barton, Fujita, Maiva. Sure Jackson might be a little better but I'l take a slight dropoff at ILB to pick up a extra 2nd round pick to draft a CB or S. CB's are on a island every play so if there bad you'll get exposed like we have. LB's weaknesses can be hidden in schemes and stunts. JMO

do the steelers have a great secondary? no they do their damage with their front 7
how about balitmore? Indy? Jets? Eagles?
the Front 7 wins games, not secondary

JMOCB's are on island, but that island can have a whole different look depending on the job of your front! It can either mean you are on vacation in paradise or stranded and LOST! If you can get pressure on the QB your CB's have less time to cover and can make plays easier. Take the Jets philosophy when they signed Cromartie, they said basically with the pressure they can put on a QB, their Corners only have to lockdown for 2-3 seconds rather than try to cover a reciever all over the field. So IMO you start improving your secondary by making your line good and build it with players stout against the run and able to quickly get pressure on the QB from the ends.
