NFL Preview: New Orleans Saints

QB: A Cool Brees is awesome and shouldn't have any trouble again this year. The big shocker? CBS has Mark Brunnel and Joey Harrington as the backup QB's. Yikes.

RB: B- Pierre Thomas is going to get the bulk of the carries this year. While Reggie Bush has dropped about 30 pounds worth of ass this offseason, he's still injury prone and can't run between the tackles. FANTASY TIP! Draft Pierre higher in all leagues but bump up Bush in all PPR leagues.

WR: A Marcus Colston, Lance Moore and Devry Henderson are as good as it gets but injuries, injuries, injuries. A few more days in the weight room and a few less nights on Bourbon Street eh boys?

TE: C- If you think Jeremy Shockey is going to be anything more than Fantasy kryptonite, you're nuts. Billy Miller is adequate blocking and catching but nothing special.

OL: B- Jammal Brown and Jon Stinchcomb are good on the outside, interior is average. They need to play well though because Brees is just a wee QB.

DL: B Seems like there is talent but they don't produce like they should. Grant is hurt now, Ellis is always hurt, Clancy = underachiever, Smith = meh.

LB: B Fujita and Vilma are both good enough. I don't know anything about Scott Shanle.

DB: D Uh-oh, trouble. Randall Gay, meh. Darren Sharper, really old. Roman Harper and Tracy Porter, who?

P/K: C They just had to sign ageless John Carney because Garrett Hartley is a juicer. I don't know Glenn Pakulak, which is good and is last name is Pakulak, which is also good.

COACHING: B Sean Payton runs a good game but shouldn't this team be winning more?

BEST CASE SCENARIO: 13-3, FIRST in the SOUTH. SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS.

WORST CASE SCENARIO: 7-9, THIRD in the SOUTH. Reggie Bush starts dating Bruce Jenner.
