Darren Fells, TE

The New Orleans Saints have a pretty good No. 1 tight end in Jared Cook, but imagine what the offense could look like with another talented tight end. The Patriots proved what a force it could be with Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez.

The six-year veteran who played last season with the Houston Texans pulled in 34 receptions for 341 yards and seven touchdowns. He had his best season yet in 2019 and could likely improve on that in 2020.

Fells is used to being the No. 2 tight end. His compliment to Cook could put the Saints offense in a deadly position — especially after the signing of Emmanuel Sanders. Better than that, Fells would sign a low-cost contract.
