Saints Draft QB, Target Defense in Free Agency

About this episode

The New Orleans Saints, with quarterback Tyler Shough now in place, focus on offensive and defensive upgrades. They eye early draft picks for a wide receiver or running back, with Jeremiyah Love and Carnell Tate as potential fits. In free agency, they consider Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean, a ball hawk with 77 career starts, to bolster their defense. Despite injury concerns, Deans potential value and rival team connection make him an attractive option for the Saints rebuild.

It's March 3rd for the NFL. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. The New Orleans Saints grabbed quarterback Tyler's show in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft. That feels their biggest need at the position. But the team still requires upgrades across offense and defense this offseason. They could use early draft picks to add a wide receiver or running back. Despite its options like Jeremiah Love and Carnotate, fit well in the first couple rounds. Meanwhile, free agency offers chances to strengthen the defense without huge spending. Sports Illustrator Projects, Tampa Bay Buccaneer's cornerback, Jamel Dean, as a strong match for New Orleans. Dean could sign a two-year deal worth $25 million. He might step in for Alan Tytaler, who could chase a larger contract elsewhere. Dean brings 77 career starts and shines as a ball-hawk. This season, he grabbed three interceptions in just 14 games, plus nine passes defended. Injury history is a concern since he rarely plays a full slate.

Still, stealing a starter from a rival like Tampa Bay makes sense for the Saints rebuild. We'd like to thank our sponsor for making this episode possible. Press play, put your head down. The sound is already there.
