A Look At The Saints
by MiamiU83
Quaterbacks- The Saints really upgraded their QB postion this offseason
with the acquisition of former Chargers QB, Drew Brees. But who knows how he's going to be at the start of the season because
hes coming back from an injury (on his throwing arm), and Aaron Brooks is gone. He is the fomer starting QB. Their backups
are Adrian McPherson and Jamie Martin are not that great. So if Brees is healthy and can do what he did in San Deigo the last
couple of years they will be fine. GRADE- B
Runningbacks-They have one of the best in Deuce McAllister and with the
2nd overall pick in ths years draft they got the explosive Reggie Bush out of USC. Their 3rd string back is Micheal Bennett
who they signed in the offseason. At his best, and that's when he's healthy, Bennett can be a pro bowl caliber type back like
he was for the Minnesota Vikings in 2002. GRADE- A
Recievers-Last year was a big disapointment for this recieving corp. Joe Horn htd the worst season of his career,and
was plagued by injuries which could be a sign that he might be slowing down. They also need to find a long term answer for
a number one postion reciever for life after Joe Horn. They were hoping that Stallworth could be that man, but only time can
tell. With the addition of Bethal Johnson for dissapointing DT Johnathan Sulvan in a trade with the patroits will add even
more speed to this group of recievers and will be a good slot reciever. The Tightend postion really lacks playmaking ability.
