The New Orleans Saints will have option headed into the 2020 NFL Draft, and unlike several other teams, they won’t be strapped to improving one position group. Ideally, they’ll be bringing in a linebacker or cornerback to help add depth and skill to those positions.
With the core linebackers entering free agency in 2021, the team could opt to make that a vocal point. But, with Demario Davis, Kiko Alonso, and Alex Anzalone all healthy and at least a few likely to re-sign, there’s no reason to be strapped at linebacker.
At the same time, the Saints have locked up both Marshon Lattimore and Janoris Jenkins for the next two seasons.
