  • 1) The Saints need a cornerback and the Packers Mike McKenzie is available, although the Pack are asking for a first round pick and the Saints have reportedly only offered a third round pick. Should the Saints give in?
  • 2) Defensive line coach John Pease said, ''everything (was) flying by him'' about first round draft pick Will Smith in the opening session of minicamp. Coach Haslett said ''he's not in the football condition he should be in''. Smith says he just had a bout of asthma. How will Smith fare in his rookie season?
  • 3) New Orleans has struggled during the last three Decembers and fallen out of playoff contention. How many games will they win in Dec./Jan. this year?
  • 4) There has been talk about possibly renovating the Superdome. Good idea?
  • 5) What will eventually happen with the Saints and their future in New Orleans?
