Stephone Anthony spent the last two days of New Orleans Saints minicamp working as the top middle linebacker.
But, whether Anthony can earn that role or be a significant contributor on defense in his third NFL seasons remains one of the biggest questions facing the team.
The Saints obviously want to maximize the potential of the 2015 first-round pick but for the second straight year, the team added more road blocks to Anthony's pursuit of a key role.
To this point in the offseason, though, coach Sean Payton and defensive coordinator Dennis Allen said they've seen progress from Anthony after a disappointing sophomore season.
