11. player. 15. Someone please get New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees a defense before his career ends. He’s still a championship QB but the Saints have failed him miserably over the last few years. He’s not going to see the playoffs again at the rate they are going. <p>A QB that puts up 35 points as often as Brees did in 2016 shouldn’t have nine losses. The Saints pass rush got a little better when 2016 first-round DT Sheldon Rankins started playing. DE Cameron Jordan had quite a year and they will get Hau’Oli Kikaha will be back healthy in 2017.</p> <p>So while we can look forward to the pass rush getting better, it time to improve the coverage. That starts with the CB position and Tre’Davious White is right down the street at LSU. He has the physicality for press coverage and the movement skills to play off a WR.</p> <p>He route-recognition and ability to break on the ball in zone completes him as a versatile CB. If the Saints can get ILB Stephone Anthony going in 2017, the defense could be solid. Then Brees would have his Saints ready to contend for something in 2017. </p>. CB. LSU. Tre'Davious White
