With the first week of NFL free agency coming to a close, it seems reasonable to expect the New Orleans Saints to be a bit more active, assuming the money works in their favor.
The Saints haven’t been a team that makes big, early splashes in free agency for some time, adopting a more conservative and insular approach since 2017. That approach has lead them to four straight 10+ win seasons, four straight NFC South titles and thus four straight playoff appearances.
One of the major constants of those runs, and of the last 15 seasons, has been quarterback Drew Brees.
