After the lack of acquisitions that the Saints have made before last season on defense it showed on the field, especially in the defensive backfield. For the last several years the defensive line and linebackers have been pretty good, but not as the ???dome patrol???. I have been following the Saints for over 30 years. They have never had a ???pro bowl caliber??? defensive backfield.

Can anyone name 5 pro bowl caliber cornerbacks that the Saints have ever had?

It is most as if they do not care about the defensive backfield. Like the defensive backfield is an afterthought. ???Oh yeah, by the way we might need a couple players to cover the receivers. Just get anyone???.

Now looking at this year???s free agency acquisitions that the Saints have picked up and what they still need for a sudden impact I am not expecting a year like 2006. I hope that they do great, but there are so many holes to be closed. I am Saints die-hard fan.

The Saints only have 4 picks in this year???s draft. I would go all defense (starting with cornerback) and invite offensive players to camp. I do not believe in BPA. You need to get what you need.
