The New Orleans Saints have several players they need to try and get extended this offseason and one of those players is Marcus Williams. While Williams is unfortunately always going to be remembered for letting Stefon Diggs get away and allowing the Minneapolis Miracle to happen, the fact of the matter is that he’s been a really solid player since joining the Saints in 2018.
Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report put together a list of one move every team still needs to make and for the Saints, he said they have to extend Williams. While I personally would say extending Ryan Ramcyzk is more important, I wouldn’t complain if New Orleans kept Williams in house.

The Saints seem to view Williams as a long-term piece of their defensive puzzle. Otherwise, why give him the franchise tag? In that case, there is little reason to wait on an extension, which could free up enough cap room to make another move or two before the regular season gets underway.
