Patriots, Chiefs, Ravens, Saints, Eagles, Seahawks among teams already laying groundwork for frenzied trade deadline

I had been more inclined to stick with who we have, but I'm changing my mind on Emmanuel Sanders. He's in the last year of his deal and his contract isn't too high anyway. No downside presuming we can compensate for losing the draft pick with good scouting.

Patriots, Saints reportedly interested in Bengals’ TE Tyler Eifert

Other than a legit #2 WR, a young blocking TE, or possibly a starting caliber swing offensive lineman, while taking into account the possibility of stealing a player from one of the tanking teams, I really don't expect the Saints to do anything. The Saints were a horrible play and the worst blown call in the history of football away from going to the last two Super Bowls. If going all in and giving up some future draft picks widens that margin of error for this season, I'm absolutely good with it.

If that deal would only cost say a 6th or 7th rounder ... do it.

Emmanuel can help.

We need to bolster Offensive Guard, namely Peat... He is not preforming this year and arguable what led to Drew's thumb injury. He looks out of Shape.

Disappointing from a guy selected so high in the draft a few years ago. Then add in mental errors & penalties. I for one will be surprised if Peat is on the Saints roster in 2020. Weak link on the O line. In my eyes, very replaceable.

He's definitely not worth what he's being paid.

Maybe we can trade Peat.

100% hes the weak link, I feel Warford isnt that great either though.

McCoy looks very promising, I never hear his name on game day so thats a good thing.
Both our tackles could be viewed as top 5 in the league.

However our guards are the weak points, fond memories of when we had Jahri Evans and Carl Nick's. Those guys were monsters.
