Not sure if you can beat Will Smith, Charles Grant, Sedrick Ellis and the rest of the depth we have.

1. Saints: Smith and Grant off the edge are beastly and proven havoc wreakers. Ellis has a lot of potential and if he can reach it they will be tough to handle.
2. Buccaneers: Adams and White are good pass rushers and Haye and Hovan are solid interior men.
3. Falcons: I'm a big fan of John Abraham and Jamaal Anderson can at least stop the run. The interior is a little soft but I think Babineaux could turn into a great lineman.
4. Panthers: Not much to get excited about here. Peppers had a crappy season and their DT's are below average.

Hopefully Jamaal Anderson steps up. Abraham is a monster off the edge.

Probably the Saints. Three deep at end, Ellis and Pressley adding depth in the interior to what they have.

I like what the Saints got going with the addition of Sedrick Ellis.

i voted saints because of the addition of ellis. clearly, with the mystery of peppers (i.e. whether he will ever return to his dominant play) and our lack of talent at DT, we have the worst defensive line in the division. pretty sad really seeing as it was such a strength only a couple of years ago

Again, I'm the lone Falcons voter. John Abraham for the win, with some Jonathan Babineaux thrown in, along with some underrated Chauncey Davis.

The Saints have two dominant ends in Smith/Grant and even if they didn't address tackle in the draft a strong case could still be made for them having the best line. As far as I'm concerned any vote that doesn't go to the Saints is homerism.

Will Smith, Charles Grant, Bobby McCray, Hollis Thomas, Brian Young, Kendrick Clancy, Sedrick Ellis, DeMario Pressley.
Saints in a land slide.

I wouldn't say land slide because your interior is still full of question marks.

Yeah, I'll give you that. Ellis still has to prove he is the beast everyone thinks he'll be. If healthy, Brian Young is a slightly above average starter. If Pressley does or doesn't make a impact.
