Saints To Shake Things Up At Defensive Tackle This Offseason?

Found January 21, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Shaun Rogers,  Aubrayo Franklin,  Sedrick Ellis
TEAMS: New Orleans Saints

The Saints signed veteran DTs Shaun Rogers and Aubrayo Franklin to one-year deals last offseason and didn't get what they wanted out of either player. They played alongside DT Sedrick Ellis, who also didn't perform up to expectations. There is the potential for a shake-up at the position this offseason as the team looks to get quicker and more explosive up the middle, but sources wouldn't rule out the Saints trying to re-sign Rogers or Franklin, and both could be back.
