WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) -- When the New Orleans Saints traded guard Ben Grubbs to the Kansas City Chiefs in March, coach Sean Payton hinted they wouldn't have done it without a solid plan.
That comes in the form of 6-foot-4, 315-pound Tim Lelito, a backup who may emerge as the man who replaces the two-time Pro Bowler.
Plugging the hole at left guard is one of the top issues for the Saints, and their first padded practice Saturday at The Greenbrier gave coaches a better look at the entire line.
