New Orleans Saints 2019 NFL draft outlook: Tight ends

SmashMouth · 04-05-2019, 07:20 AM

Going into the offseason, tight end was one of the top needs for the New Orleans Saints, but they seemed to have filled it by signing Jared Cook.

The addition of Cook continues a trend of the Saints seeking tight end help with veteran free agents, something they did in recent years with Coby Fleener and Benjamin Watson. The hope, though, is that Cook can make the same impact in New Orleans as he did with the Raiders last season when he had career highs of 68 catches for 896 yards and six touchdowns.
