Free agent market for tight ends starting to sour for Saints

The biggest offseason need for the New Orleans Saints is tight end. No position lacks as many difference-makers anywhere else on their roster. Josh Hill is a fine sidekick, but the Saints haven’t had a true superhero there since trading Jimmy Graham away so many years ago. Ben Watson had some good years but was very much at the end of his career. Youngsters Dan Arnold and Garrett Griffin didn’t get it done when their numbers were called in the playoffs.

So, naturally, the Saints would be expected to be in on many of the free agent tight ends available this offseason.
