We’re taking a bit of a liberty in assuming four of the five linebacker spots are in ink as Saints training camp gets underway. Certainly, three of them are. Barring any injuries during camp and the preseason, Breesus forbid, your three starters are Alex Anzalone at weakside, Demario Davis in the middle and A.J. Klein at strongside.
Craig Robertson, everyone is assuming will still be taking the fourth slot being a captain on special teams. Again we’re taking some liberties. The only two linebackers on the Saints roster who can be guaranteed a spot come opening day are Demario Davis and Alex Anzalone.
