The New Orleans Saints are breathing down the home stretch of the regular season, but there are still players they could add to help the team.

The New Orleans Saints are heading into Week 13 on an eight-game winning streak. They have five games left in the regulars season and then they are headed to the playoffs. This year it is hoped with the No. 1 seed in the NFC.

The stretch is here, and the Saints need to buckled down and try to get five wins to end out the season on a 13-game winning streak. Even with the Chiefs on the schedule in Week 15, the Saints have a chance to finish better than they did last year.

The Saints have roughly $5.5 million to use for the rest of the year to sign a player that the Saints could use to add depth to their roster in the home stretch. There are plenty of players on the market that New Orleans could still use.

The money the black and gold have available would be more than enough to add any player for a five-game plus playoff stint. They would then hit free agency again as any player would. Here are the top five players still left on the market that the Saints should pursue.
