aints and about 21 other teams did not go after their needs. they were just trying to go after who was the biggest name on the board.

their was only about 6 teams who did what they were suppose to about their needs. falcons IMO did the best of fixing their needs.

Every team including the Falcons are studying what the Jets and Saints are doing on D

to catch up with the program according to John Gruden and co. Innovate don't imitate. ;)

ohhhhh no we are not looking at the jets and espically not the aints D. who wants to have a D who gtes scored 25+ on every game? take it your a aint fan.

I will say that if any team is looking at D, it is teams who have a 3-4 scheme. but thats at the most

Gregg Williams and his blitzing schemes rely on a secondary that covers teams like a wet blanket while rushing the QB into bad decisions. The rest works itself out, and having the top scoring offense in the league doesn't hurt either.

It's pretty clear they don't put a premium on the spot, because they totally ignored it. I know Shanle (or whatever) was rated one of the worst 4-3 OLB's in the entire league last year. Now it looks like he is your best OLB.

I'd like to point out both Falcons and Panthers allowed fewer points last year. OLB is a big need.

Well what can I say, Bankerbird has a point to a certain degree, you don't need the Steel curtain on D when you have something resembling the Greatest show on turf on O.

Yeah, you guys won by putting up a load of points and having an opportunistic defense. Still, OLB should have been addressed. I have a pretty solid theory that you guys can't draft.

Can we admit then that Saints and Jets D are very similar in scheme. It's like the same guy calling the plays Rex Ryan/3G, one and the same practically. That's only going to improve with future drafts.

Scheme? No.

Idea? Yeah.

Totally different defenses, but both are blitz heavy.

I'm sorry but that Superbowl was suspect. Just saying. I still believe the Saints' defense was one of the most overrated defenses in the league last year.

Yeh go figure it's rigged!!! Anyway I watched it and must say that I was entertained, wonder if i can order the SB script.
