Position Battles to Watch Ahead of the New Orleans Saints OTAs
Position Battles to Watch Ahead of the New Orleans Saints OTAs
The New Orleans Saints will have plenty of position battles to pay attention to throughout OTAs.
The Saints will host their OTAs starting on Tuesday. While no contact is permitted, 5v5, 7v7, and 11v11 drills are allowed. During these drills, New Orleans will have various position battles they'll be taking a close eye on.
Among the Saints' position battles, cornerback is one of the most in question. After trading away All-Pro Marshon Lattimore, New Orleans' cornerback room is full of a lack of experience.
Kool-Aid McKinstry saw early action during his rookie season, but his lack of pro experience was noticeable. Alontae Taylor had a lot of success from the slot, but injuries pushed him to the outside where he would struggle. The Saints tried addressing their lack of a veteran presence early in the offseason when they targeted former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Charvarius Ward but had to settle for Isaac Yiadom—who they signed to a three-year $9 million contract.
