I definitely think that Gaines Adams is primed for a good season this year and really wouldn't be surprised if he had 10+ sacks.

Jonathan Vilma should be a good candidate for comeback player of the year now that he gets to play in a 4-3 defense again :)

Broderick Bunkley will never have a true breakout season statistically. He is a two-gap DT that hogs up blockers and allows people around him to make plays. He will make his own plays too, but his role in this defense throughout his career will be to give the other people around him the opportunity to make plays. You could arguable say that he had his breakout season this year, based on the kind of player he is.

The Saints hopefuls:

Robert Meachem (Crosses fingers). Vilma of course and hopefully Randall ***. *** since he finally gets to come back to a man defense like he played in college. Roman Harper. Oh yea, and I pray Reggie finally comes around and stops auditioning for Dancing With The Stars.

I will go with Steve Smith for us, now that he got big game experience of us. I look for him to be a bigger impact for us. Also, Ahmad Bradshaw playing from day 1 rather than late in the season.

Jay cutler for sure...Travis Henry is gonna make a huge come back. I think that the D line in general (Crowder/Thomas/Moss) could all have good seasons as well.
