![]() ![]() This unit is the engine keeping the offense moving. Tom has put up good reps as the initial backup at center, and Clapp can play all three interior spots well. Peat and LeRibeus can both play tackle in a pinch while standing out best at guard. Offensive interior (6): Max Unger, Larry Warford, Andrus Peat, Josh LeRibeus, Cameron Tom, Will Clapp. It feels sketchy to go with just three offensive tackles given Armstead’s injury history and Leonard’s inexperience, but the Saints have so many solid swing tackle-guard combos that they can get by without a more qualified backup. Offensive tackles (3): Terron Armstead, Ryan Ramczyk, Rick Leonard. Watson could catch 40 passes from Brees in his sleep, while Hill is a solid second tight end and Arnold continues to develop into a big-play threat. He just hasn’t been able to stay on the field this summer. The only surprise I anticipate here is Michael Hoomanawanui getting healthy enough to keep around. Tight ends (3): Benjamin Watson, Josh Hill, Dan Arnold. Brandon Tate has resisted all of Tommylee Lewis’ best efforts to make the squad. His emergence has shaken up the receivers’ depth chart more than any other factor and New Orleans should get him involved as soon as possible.

Expect all of them to get ample opportunities to hurt defenses. ![]() This is Alvin Kamara’s show while Mark Ingram serves out his suspension, with Boston Scott and Jonathan Williams splitting reps in a rotation. Running back (5): Alvin Kamara, Jonathan Williams, Boston Scott, Trey Edmunds, Zach Line (fullback). It’s the best possible quarterback situation given what they had to work with this year. 2 for the year while Hill keeps killing it on special teams. Barrett looks like a shoo-in for the practice squad. Hopefully Savage will get traded to another team rather than outright cut. The Bridgewater trade signals the end of the Tom Savage era. Quarterback (3): Drew Brees, Teddy Bridgewater, Taysom Hill With roster cuts on the horizon, here’s who I’m projecting to make the opening day roster.
