With the huge possibility of Saints quarterback Drew Brees retiring at the end of the season, the Saints will be searching for a new signal-caller under center for 2021. Based on the remarks made today by executive vice president and General Manager Mickey Loomis, the team will not be going into rebuilding mode because the future Hall of Famer Brees is retiring and potential salary cap hurdles.

 
WR...if Thomas is traded. Corners and linebackers.

Why would we trade Thomas? I’ve seen zero reports/suspicions of him being traded. He has his occasional Twitter outbursts but I expect him to be back and as good as ever next season after his surgery.

I didn't say we would. I said if. There was rumbling of him not being happy and wanted out. Whether it is true or not, remain to be seen. But I have to take that in consideration. IF he is traded then...

Anything is possible. Jimmy Graham was traded and it took a lot of people by surprise.
 
Athletic LB

This. Sweet mother of mercy, this. I don't care if he plays Inside, Outside, or somewhere else just please bring in another LBer who can run fast and be good at football. We caught a glimpse of what this defense could be like with two such LBers and it was everything I'd ever hoped for. All of the sudden we could cover TEs and backs. We stopped getting killed by QB rolling out. When a pass was thrown to the flats there was actually a defender within 15 yards. It was unbelievable. Kwon and DD were everywhere.
 
Depends a lot on who on the current roster they are unable to retain. All things being equal....linebacker, linebacker, line backer. I was a big proponent of drafting Queen last year over Ruiz. The way the cap situation appears, it looks like many positions may be positions of need.
