Ok...Now you're just F****ing with me.

Hey 53. I actually had Marcus in mind when I started this thread. I tend to think the FO will want to really solidify the o-line this year w/ Samuels aging and suffering the injury last year and Jansen/Heyer as our only two other real NFL tackles. (I'm guessing we take any one of the top 4 OTs left @ 13) So LB will probably not be addressed until the 3rd round and we need someone who can step right into the system. Bringing Marcus back makes sense to me but who knows if either side would go for it.

... one thing i don't understand is why we continued to play Marcus @ SLB where he got stuck in coverage way more that Rocky it seemed and coverage is now his real downside w/ the hip/hamstrings. I think we'd see better success if the two had swapped and maybe Marcus would have been less prone to injury. Who knows...
but i would like to see him back.

I agree and think it would make sense. I don't know if he would come back or not. I have a feeling the Saints will be giving him a call.
