First in free agency, the New Orleans Saints agreed to terms with the best safety on the market, Jairus Byrd, a current Pro Bowler.

Most recently, on Friday, the defensive backfield got better and deeper when the Saints agreed to terms with one of the best cornerbacks in league history, likely Hall of Famer Champ Bailey.

The 35-year-old Bailey, a 12-time Pro Bowler with 52 career interceptions, agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Saints, allowing him to join the likes of Byrd, cornerback Keenan Lewis and safety Kenny Vaccaro in the Saints' secondary.

“I have a little more to my game, I believe, especially mentally,” Bailey said. “I can see things a lot easier, a lot of things come up that I’ve had experience with. That only helps your game. I’m using that to my advantage as much as possible because I know how much you’ve got to be mentally ready for this well, as well as physically ready.

“When you have a lot of young, energetic guys that want to prove that they belong in this game and prove that they’re one of the best – you’ve got a young Kenny Vaccaro, how much is Jairus Byrd going to help him? How much can I help them? How much can they help me? I just like the situation I’m going into because I know these guys are going to be hungry and we can all be biting each other’s style as far as what it’s going to take to be great. And I’m excited to be a part of it.”
