Let's play GM for the Saints this offseason, making decisions on the future for New Orleans leading up to the draft.
By John Hendrix - Saints News Network | SI
The offseason can't get here soon enough for the Saints, because that's when the real excitement begins for New Orleans. On the field this season? It's been a disaster. The Saints are going to end up turning in their worst campaign since 2005 when they went 3-13. This season has been all kinds of wrong, and there's so much to do over the next few months.
While I'm clearly not the general manager of the Saints, here's the way I'd approach things if I were Mickey Loomis trying to start the process of fixing the team. I'm going to go through most everything here, including what I believe happens with New Orleans, so buckle up.
Coaching Decisions:
Hire Anthony Weaver or Vance Joseph
There's two coaches I would narrow the search down to when it's all said and done, and that's Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver and Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph. Joseph is of the Kubiak tree, which honestly makes him a more viable candidate for the Saints job in my opinion. Weaver is from the John Harbaugh tree and interviewed well with the Commanders and Falcons last offseason. Although his experience isn't necessarily there, I like his makeup a lot.
The Saints must go against the grain here and not stick with familiarity, even if it is what they want to do. Weaver is a very smart and talented defensive-minded coach. He's a former player and I just like sourcing from a background that has learned under one of the league's best coaches. He wasn't in my top-tier list, but my next-tier list.
WHAT I THINK HAPPENS: The Saints aren't getting Ben Johnson, and Aaron Glenn is probably the leading guy here, but I expect the Jets to be very interested in him as well. Glenn also has to say yes to the Saints. ...

The New Orleans Saints have solidified a new hire to the special teams staff. According to Nick Underhill, the Saints have brought on Kyle Wilber as the new assistant special teams coordinator.
Wilber, 35, comes to New Orleans after two seasons as the Green Bay Packers’ special teams quality control coach. He spent most of his playing career with the Dallas Cowboys, where he was a teammate of new Saints head coach Kellen Moore. Wilber was selected in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Playing for the Cowboys from 2012 to 2017, in 2018, the Oakland Raiders signed...

Kellen Moore hires former teammate to the Saints special teams staff
One commonality on Kellen Moore’s coaching staff has been familiarity. You saw that with his connection to most of the coaches he hired on the offensive side of the ball. Defensive coordinator Brandon Staley was the head coach when Moore was with the Los Angeles Chargers. Moore is continuing to use those connections to fill out his staff.
The latest coach to be hired by the New Orleans Saints with a connection to Moore is Kyle Wilber. The New Orleans Times-Picayune’s Luke Johnson reported the Saints hired Wilber as a special teams assistant Monday morning, an upgrade from being the Green...

How a Matthew Stafford trade would impact Derek Carr's NFL future
The Los Angeles Rams have given Matthew Stafford’s agent permission to speak with other teams, which may open the door for him to be traded. The New Orleans Saints don’t have the current supporting cast to make this move make sense, so they shouldn’t be expected to be involved in trade discussions for Stafford.
The news however does impact Saints quarterback Derek Carr. His future in New Orleans remains uncertain, and Kellen Moore didn’t provide any clarification on the matter in his introductory press conference.

Saints hire Texas assistant coach Terry Joseph
Last week, the New Orleans Saints hired Brandon Staley as their next defensive coordinator and now the team can focus on filling out the rest of the defensive staff before the NFL Combine. Today, per Tom Pelissero, the Saints have hired Texas assistant head coach/defensive pass game coordinator Terry Joseph to become their next defensive pass game coordinator.
Joseph has coached since 1999 and wherever he has gone, the defensive back group has success. The Saints have talent in their DB room, and Joseph could be the perfect hire to develop some of these younger players.

Saints named a reasonable landing spot for recently-cut Patriots LB
The New Orleans Saints will need to stretch their limited money a long ways this offseason, which means they will likely be bargain hunting in free agency.
Anthony Palacios of Last Word on Sports recently listed the Saints as one of the top five landing spots for ex-New England Patriots linebacker Sione Takitaki. Takitaki makes sense as an option given that he will be cheap, but isn’t necessarily a needle-mover on defensive side of the ball.
The 29-year-old was a third round draft pick by the Cleveland Browns back in 2019. He spent his first five seasons there before signing a two-year...

The Brandon Staley conundrum: What makes the Saints DC so interesting?
Dennis Allen didn’t work as the New Orleans Saints head coach, but he was able to land a job with the Chicago Bears as their defensive coordinator in a matter of months. Matter of fact, Allen failed as the Oakland Raiders head coach becoming the Saints defensive coordinator.
The sentiment you can be a better coordinator than head coach is one Saints fans have heard since hiring Brandon Staley. Staley’s tenure as the leader of the Los Angeles Chargers didn’t go well.
This is where things get interesting. Staley comes to New Orleans with limited experience as a defensive coordinator. He...

Saints make a big-time coaching hire from the Texas Longhorns
Here’s a big move for Kellen Moore’s New Orleans Saints coaching staff. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that the Saints are hiring Texas Longhorns defensive pass game coordinator Terry Joseph for the same role under Brandon Staley; Joseph has also coached defensive backs at Texas, so expect him to play a key role in rebuilding the secondary. Nola.com’s Luke Johnson confirmed the news of Joseph’s addition.

The 2024 season was a turbulent one for the New Orleans Saints receiving corps to say the least. The season started with Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed being the top two options, but neither player made it past Week 9 before suffering a season ending injury. Prior to the injuries, Olave was having another solid season, catching 32 passes for 400 yards in 8 games, (which still wound up being tops among wide receivers for the Saints in 2024) but Shaheed was in the midst of a breakout year.
He gained 73+ yards in 4 of 6 games and also caught three touchdowns while averaging 17.5 yards per...

Saints considered surprising college coach for defensive coordinator opening
The New Orleans Saints have selected all three of their coordinator positions, wrapping things up by hiring Brandon Staley as their defensive coordinator. They had plenty of options when it came to making a choice, but ultimately they went with the one who Kellen Moore worked with in 2023 and had some head coaching experience (albeit not great experience).
However, there were other options being considered, and after the hire was made, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reported that they had considered Colorado Buffaloes defensive coordinator Robert Livingston for the position.
