At training camp, there is always a battle at some positions. What position battles do you see? Here's what I predict.

Quarterback - If we land Brees, Frerotte is let go, and we don't draft a QB, I do not see any battle. The QB's, from first string to third, will be Brees, Lemon, and Berlin. Maybe there will be a battle between Lemon and Berlin with loser being third string, but that's about it.

But if we do draft a QB and we keep Frerotte -

2nd String-

Cleo Lemon vs. Draft Pick. (Projected winner: Lemon) Sorry Berlin. I like you, but you're the odd man out.


Running Backs - If Ricky Williams (God forbid) is suspended, I still don't see the end of the R&R Era. It will just be the R&_

1b String -

Sammy Morris vs. Kay-Jay Harris (Projected Winner: It depends. Does Sammy Morris stay at FB or TB?)

Safety - Tebucky Jones, gone. Lance Schulters, might be gone. The only safeties we have left (for sure) are Norman Lejeune, Travares Tillman, Yeremiah Bell, Jack Hunt, and Sideeq Shabazz. I see Yeremiah Bell and Travares Tillman as the projected starters, but if there is a draft pick, all three of them will be in battle.

1st Stringers -
Yeremiah Bell vs. Travares Tillman vs. Draft Pick.

2nd String -

Sideeq Shabazz vs. Norman LeJeune vs. Jack Hunt.

Cornerbacks - Oh Lord. Reggie Howard is gone. Sam Madison is also gone. The only sure starter is Travis Daniels, and possibly Will Poole barring a draft pick. But since we usually keep six cornerbacks, we pretty much have a free for all. And that doesn't even include the annual Undrafted Free Agents.
 
A bit early for this discussion don't you think? How about we go thru FA and the Draft first?
 
too early to say we may get some FA and who knows what we will do in the draft
 
I know its early, but IF you are going to do this, you cannot forget about the o-line. Who is going to be the center? LT? Even the guards may change.
 
I think the guy we draft at cornerback is going to battle the guy we pick up in FA at cornerback... that ought to be good.

Lord help us if we dont get Brees. Then I see the QB battle looking something like this:

Gus Frerotte vs. My nuts.

I got 5 bucks on your nuts in that fight. Any takers?
