Dave Desposito, who oversees the filming of all games and practices and edits the video on a daily basis for the coaches, scouts and front office personnel, enters his tenth season with the Saints as video director.

Desposito’s responsibilities include breaking down the opponent's weekly game video and keeping a detailed archive for the coaching staff. Since his arrival, the Saints have also installed a state-of-the-art, digital editing system networked throughout the building via computer.

It’s time-consuming work that involves late nights and tight deadlines, and the game film that Desposito and his staff generates – as well as that of every NFL team – is also shipped to future opponents.

Desposito came to New Orleans after serving as assistant video director from 1998-2001 for the Jacksonville Jaguars. He worked from 1993-97 for the New York Giants as an intern, coach’s show assistant and video assistant.

A native of Little Ferry, N.J., Desposito graduated from William Paterson University with a degree in communications. He and his wife, Christine, have a daughter, Abigail, and a son, Tyler.
