Re: Official 2024 Free Agency Discussion

Spend on the DLine (especially DE).

Draft the OT, WR and LB.

Who could Kubiak bring with him to New Orleans

https://saintswire.usatoday.com/list...-klint-kubiak/

#1

A former fourth-round draft pick by the Raiders, Feliciano played with Derek Carr for four years before leaving for a starting gig with the Buffalo Bills. He’s developed into a quality backup at all three interior line positions and has had his best season as a pro with the 49ers this year, starting multiple games at both guard spots and snapping the ball himself from center (where he started the entire 2022 campaign on the New York Giants). He would be an upgrade over backups like Max Garcia and Cameron Erving despite his age (he’ll turn 32 next week) and injury history.

7 Saints free agents targets to watch in Ravens vs. Chiefs

https://saintswire.usatoday.com/list...tyler-huntley/

Ravens OL John Simpson

One of Derek Carr’s former teammates with the Las Vegas Raiders, Simpson has held down the left guard spot for Baltimore and is looking to hit free agency in the prime of his career. He could be an upgrade over James Hurst for New Orleans. Pro Football Focus projects a two-year contract for him valued at $5.25 million per year.

Re: Official 2024 Free Agency Discussion

Like always, it's very difficult to predict what the Saints will do in free agency. My best guess is this year will be a handful of lower tier players on short deals. There are a couple of issues as to why the Saints may not be able to go after top tier free agents. We do not understand what is meant by Mickey Loomis wanting to change the team culture. What players if any does that involve removing from the team? We can pretty much assume that means Thomas isn't coming back, the way Lattimore's contract was restructured indicates he may be on the list too, Winston isn't likely back, and from there who knows. What we do know is that any player leaving puts an additional strain on the salary cap. Not to mention we still have no idea if Ram will make it back or not. Gonna be an interesting off-season for sure.

Oline ...

OG Dalton Risner - solid pass protector & stays in front of his man.
Possibly @ 8M per season.

Re: Official 2024 Free Agency Discussion

Definitely wouldn't hurt to bring guys in to COMPETE.

Saints need better depth. Niners are in the SB for a reason.

10 49ers free agents who could follow Klint Kubiak to the Saints

Jon Feliciano (OT) is definitely a better back up than Garcia.

I'm more concerned not over extending players already past their best to make the room to sign these players than i am bringing in players. Its a multi year project to revamp this team.

That is, of course, if the plan was to "revamp this team". In a recent NOF video with Nick Underhill and Mike Triplett, Triplett said that isn't the direction he is expecting them to go this off-season. He said he expects them to stick with adding pieces and trying to win now.
