The New Orleans Saints have been working diligently to clear up the necessary cap space, both for league compliance, and to be viable suitors in free agency. The team has alleviated a significant amount of damage; much in the past week alone, they’ve gone from about $90 million over the cap to $46 million without any major casualties. Save for the unfortunate termination of Thomas Morstead’s contract.
With the expectation that burgeoning stars such as Trey Hendrickson will depart for higher compensation, and the perpetual drive to remain a competitive team, New Orleans will likely be bargain shopping come the first day of free agency, Mar.
