Saints hire Kellen Moore as head coach

It's going to be interesting to see how they operate in free agency this year. Some of it will be dependent on what they decide to do with Carr, but I wonder if they plan to be active, will they continue the soft rebuild, or will they do the full rebuild this year? I hope it's either the soft rebuild or the full rebuild so Moore can have more freedom to make moves in 2026.

Some of it also may depend on if they want to give extensions to Olave, Shaheed, Penning, Chase Young, and Juwan Johnson.
The next month will be far more interesting than the last month was. We have exclusive negotiating rights with all of those players until March 12th. Young may decide to test free agency which will sting from a cap perspective. Juwan would be smart to take a team friendly deal with some performance incentives. The rest, and I would add Alontae Taylor to your list, are under contract and the extensions would give them some long term assurances while also giving us some cap relief. That great thing about all of them is that they are younger players.

Carr will be the ultimate indicator of where the team is going in 2025. The only real options I see are restructure and June 1 cut. If we see some of the older guys get restructured first, my bet will be on a June 1 cut.
