The New Orleans Saints defense must improve tackling efficiency to compete

When you look across the NFL during this entire offseason, the New Orleans Saints have undoubtedly had one of the most interesting. Just think about it. The Saints didn’t make an immediate splash in free agency like last year by signing an attractive star. Instead, they did the unthinkable by trading their superstar tight end Jimmy Graham to Seattle. It wasn’t over. The team also moved on from wide receiver Kenny Stills and guard Ben Grubbs. When you factor that in with the amount of losses during this offseason with players like Curtis Lofton, Pierre Thomas, and Patrick Robinson, it figures to be both exciting and scary.
