The New Orleans Saints are loaded with young, unproven talent that could prove to have a breakout season and drastically impact the team’s success in 2020.

Coming off a 13-win season followed by a heartbreaking defeat in the Wild Card round to Minnesota, the New Orleans Saints made a few stellar offseason additions and will again be primed for a dominant season.

They needed to continue to enhance their roster as the NFC South drastically became more competitive. After all, whenever you add a future Hall of Famer quarterback and tight end to a divisional foe, it becomes that much more difficult to breeze through.

The Saints are still the heavy favorite to be crowned NFC South champions at the end of the season, and it certainly has something to do with the facts that they signed Emmanuel Sanders and Malcolm Jenkins. It was far from just about those two.

Drew Brees returned; Taysom Hill is back.

The team snagged four solid options in the draft to help supplement potentially weak areas. Most of all, the Saints really didn’t lose much talent outside of backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

At large, this roster is still the same. That said, let’s dive into three familiar faces that could be set up for breakout season in 2020.
