New Orleans Saints

Projected Cap Space: $27,342,617

Biggest Need: Cornerback

The New Orleans could use a cornerback, or two or three in free agency and/or the NFL Draft this offseason.

Especially considering they have the likes of quarterbacks Cam Newton, Matt Ryan and Jameis Winston to deal with in the NFC South.

No one within New Orleans’ secondary inspires much confidence, so it wouldn’t be a shock to see the Saints target a true shutdown corner like A.J. Bouye to reinforce this scuffling unit and take pressure off the front seven.

Bringing in a veteran like Prince Amukamara wouldn’t hurt either.
