2020 NFL Free Agency: New Orleans Saints

It's the free agency bargain bin for us once again. Thankfully our roster isn't full of holes. Still, its gonna be near impossible to upgrade our weak spots. Hope we have a great draft.

We have options there through FA and draft. WR is a position rookies can produce in day one.

Personally, I'm more concerned with CB, S, LB and OG.

I guess it's OK if Peat stays.
Hope we sign Vonn Bell.
CB will take the most work btwn restructure and/or replacing
LB - Anzalone back but we need a solid OLB opposite. Feel like we go that route at pick 24.

Kenneth Murray at 24

Is Murray even a Round 1 pick? He's been a good player, but a first round pick?

And out greatest liabilities have been extreme speed at the WRZ, LG, and CB2 the past three seasons, I'd put LBer at around Priority #6 on the Saints personnel needs right now...

I think Murray is a first rounder, but if Jefferson falls I believe Payton is taking him. Malcolm Jenkins was released. We need to pick him up. Bring Janoris back. Find another pass rusher.

Of course he is. Not really his fault that the Big 12/OU has such awful discipline and scheme. He is a sideline to sideline guy, above average instincts & knows how to close.

I'll be surprised if Murray isn't selected before pick #20.

Like Queen a lot. Shifty, fluid hips and is a 3 down backer. Liked the fact that he talked, communicated with his guys pre snap. High IQ. IMO he can start from Day 1 at the NFL level.

In saying all of that ... I'd feel a lot better drafting him if Mike Nolan was here as his LB coach
