Interesting read... some names may suprise you. That poses a question though. Do you take a chance on players like Ansah, Olgetree or Matthieu?

I personally hate Ansah and Ogletree in a 3-4...but that's just me. Ansah is 6'4" 270. He could get even bigger. Unless the Saints plan to move him to DE...ah, no. He was a great idea when the Saints were running a 4-3...but not now.

Ogletree is a nickel 3-4 ILB at best in our system. he is TOO SMALL and can't shed blocks. Is that really the type of guy you want at 3-4 ILB? The Saints have a guy who fits the bill better on their roster...Martez Wilson. So why would you invest a premium draft pick on Ogletree? It makes no sense. Minter & Teo would be much better picks...but again...are they upgrades to Lofton? Questionable.

Let's just stick with guys who fit our scheme and aren't at the two reasonably deep positions on the defense (DE & ILB). The Saints could easily go NT, WOLB, SOLB, CB, FS, SS and get an upgrade.

Not that big a fan of Te'o. I'd take Minter and Arthur Brown over him in a heartbeat.

I think Ogletree would be perfect ILB for Saints 3-4

Ansah played the 5 tech at BYU. He also line up at LB and NT.

What is everyone's thoughts on mingo?? He is extremely fast but I think he's a little small. Also, I dont think he can cover that well but perhaps he is coachable? That speed is a great foundation to build upon...

Ogletree: I was never that high on him to begin with and with the Vilma news I wouldn't get him.

Ansah: I like him but not sure if he fits. He can play jack line backer, but that is where Galette would play. Ansah could play 5tec DE. Then Jordan would have to move to 3tec DE and Hicks from there to nose. I don't know if you want to change the defense that much for one guy.

Mingo: He won't fall to 15. I think he will be top 10. If we can get him. Then get him. He can play jack or will linebacker. With Galette at jack though he would play will and start over Vilma.
