Remember, no deal the Saints make will be as bad as the Jared Goff contract

Their cap situation is incredibly bad, and they also have a lack of first round picks and still need to re-sign Jalen Ramsey. They're going to be a very top heavy team, but are going to have to make sacrifices in certain areas, such as the offensive line, and Goff isn't that great to begin with. Unless they get very lucky with a few jackpot late rounders, they're going to be in 7-9/8-8 hell for awhile.

When you really study their roster, especially after what they've lost or had to get rid of this off-season, you quickly realize that this is not a very good football team anymore.
