2018 Free Agency Preview: New Orleans Saints | NFL Analysis | Pro Football Focus
Sammy Watkins, WR, Los Angeles Rams. The Saints saw first hand at what they needed to do to replace Brandin Cooks in 2017, and that was a combination of utilizing a great year by Ted Ginn and a combination of Brandon Coleman and Willie Snead, the latter duo both of whom are restricted free agents. With the acquisition of a second viable receiver opposite Michael Thomas, the Saints could possibly remove the need to tender either Coleman or Snead and bring in the big-play threat of Watkins, possibly causing mismatches with him or Thomas against opponents in 2018.
