ESPN gives Saints a “C” grade for the offseason

It doesn’t look like Gerald McCoy is signing with the New Orleans Saints, so it’s more likely than not that the Saints are done adding substantial pieces to their roster for 2019. With roster changes now firmly in the rearview mirror, media outlets are placing grades on teams’ moves (or lack thereof, depending on the team).

For ESPN, they recently graded all 32 NFL teams’ offseasons (Insider required), and the New Orleans Saints were given a “C:”

Grade: C

The Saints’ grade takes a hit from the 2018 trade that saw them surrender their 2019 first-round pick to Green Bay as part of trading up to select defensive end Marcus Davenport.
