If only Vinny and Danny are as smart as us hR members!

I like Udeze too but Sean Taylor is the man to get. He will make plays and cause turnovers just like Ed Reed. I think we can fill some D-line holes through free agency with a Darren Howard or Kearse, as well as the later rounds of the draft. Udeze would not be a bad pick though

[IowaSkinsFan]

With the cap space that NO has, Darren Howard probably won't be available, if they wish to retain him. Kearse isn't worth the risk with his history of injury, unless he agreed to an incentive laden contract.

Udeze is clearly, IMO, the player who could fill the greatest need for us as well as give us the best value, provided we trade down closer to #10 to get him.
