Ereck Flowers, OL

The last position that could find themselves in need of help is the offensive line — specifically the guard. The Saints drafted Cesar Ruiz and then released Larry Warford to lead the way for Ruiz to start on the line this season.

However, in simultaneously releasing Warford, they created a depth problem for themselves. The only backups they have on the line is Nick Easton and Will Clapp. Those are two they have relied on for years that are mediocre at best.

They should look at Ereck Flowers, a former guard from the Washington Football Team. From 2015 to 2017, Flowers started all but one game for the Football Team. In the last couple of years he has come by some hard times which is why he finds himself still on the market.

He could be the perfect depth addition for the Saints though.

As we stated before, the New Orleans Saints almost always get bit by the injury bug at the same time each year. Because of that, they will find themselves sifting through the names on the free-agent market. These are ones they should keep at the top.
