Saints’ Martez Wilson: ‘I see myself being a Hall of Famer’
During his rookie season of 2011, Saints linebacker Martez Wilson had … well, the kind of campaign you’d expect from a third-round draft pick and project player (10 tackles, one sack).

However, the Saints brought in 3 free agent linebackers this offseason, Curtis Lofton, David Hawthorne, and Chris Chamberlain so there isn’t a lot of room for Wilson to play at linebacker.
