    Yup. The Predator (Mike McKenzie) is still with the club. He quietly had a Pro Bowl-type season last year before he tore his ACL in the final quarter of the season. Afterwards, McKenzie was telling everyone not to expect him back for 2008, but rather he was going to be back for 2009. Due to the severity of the injury, McKenzie's age, and the timing of the tear it makes sense..

    It won't be a full year from when the injury happened until the final few games of the season are about to be played. I doubt the Saints carry him on the 53-man roster for most of the season unable to use him for the slight chance he might be able to play in a few games. I fully expect he'll go on injured reserve and miss the year.

    Hence Usama Young and Randall Gay I suspect will be the starters with Jason David and Jason Craft the nickel and dime DBs.

    I have high hopes for Usama, it was so stupid brining Jason David into a system that he was not suited for. And I'm glad we didn't bring in Asante Samuel because he is only trouble. Randall should do good with the Saints
