Some PFF accolades for the game...

TOP 5 GRADES:
Edge Cameron Jordan, 85.4 overall grade

DI David Onyemata, 85.2 overall grade

CB P.J. Williams, 84.9 overall grade

LB Alex Anzalone, 82.0 overall grade

WR Ted Ginn, 80.7 overall grade

PERFORMANCES OF NOTE:
QB DREW BREES, 69.8 OVERALL GRADE
Making his preseason debut, Brees spent most of his time in the first half (he came out for the final drive of the second quarter) playing conservatively, with 13 of his 15 attempts traveling fewer than 10 yards in the air. Brees was sharp though, finishing the game with an 80.0 adjusted completion percentage as he was accurate on 12 of his 15 attempts.

G LANDON TURNER, 78.2 OVERALL GRADE
Playing with the second unit, the undrafted sophomore from North Carolina had himself a fine game, especially in pass protection where he didn’t cede a pressure on 17 pass-block snaps. Turner struggled a bit in pass protection in New Orleans’ first two preseason games, making Saturday’s showing especially encouraging.

EDGE CAMERON JORDAN, 85.4 OVERALL GRADE
Jordan was probably the most productive player on the field Saturday, as he finished with a sack and 2 hits on 16 pass rushing snaps. Jordan also had two stops in run defense on seven snaps.

CB P.J. WILLIAMS, 84.9 OVERALL GRADE
Williams was equally impressive in the Saints secondary as he yielded 1 reception on 4 targets thrown his way totaling negative-1 yard. Williams ability to play the deeper passes down the field was the key to his production.
