NFC South Offseason: New Orleans Saints

Last week I took at look at what offseason moves the Atlanta Falcons had made and how they could affect the Buccaneers. In continuing in this series, I’m diving into what moves the reigning NFC South division champs New Orleans Saints have made and where they potentially improved their team.

The Saints took a gigantic step forward last year after three straight seasons of finishing 7-9 to win the division with an 11-5 record. They drafted well and their defense, usually their weak spot, jumped an incredible 23 spots, and went from 31st to 8th overall in defensive efficiency from 2016 to 2017.
