Logan Ryan

In his seventh season, Logan Ryan played half of his career with New England and then half with Tennessee. He was groomed under Bill Belichick and now stars under Mike Vrabel. Logan Ryan is arguably one of the best cornerbacks in this free agency and the entire NFL.

Ryan finished this season with 113 tackles, four interceptions, 18 pass defends, and 4.5 sacks. That is an outrageous season for a cornerback. To put that into perspective, the Saints star corner Lattimore finished with 57 tackles, 0 sacks, and 1 interception.

Logan Ryan is the type of corner that will cost you a little bit more than the average cornerback, but you know you will get all of your money’s worth for this guy. Ryan could immediately come into the Saints and make a huge impact.

The Titans are still in the playoffs so if we want Ryan to not want to stay in Tennessee they need to lose in the playoffs quickly. I think that New Orleans could be the team to pry the star corner away from the Titans grip.
