With a limited cap and a handful of needs, who can the New Orleans Saints possibly bring in to help that won’t break the bank?

The Saints have their eyes on the free-agent market or at least they should.

There are a ton of players that are going to be available — including over a dozen Saints players. The biggest need for the Saints is not a player, but to save money on the people they sign without compromising talent.

On top of the over dozen players on the free-agent market, the Saints could end up releasing a handful of players that will make a need for cheaper players that they could find on the market to replace the players they let go.

They also have the option to re-sign their own players. With all that said, New Orleans definitely has its hands full. On top of that, they have the NFL Draft to worry about as well. As always, it should be a huge year for the black and gold in the offseason.

In this article, we will not only look at the players the Saints can sign at a price point that won’t break the bank, but we will also look at what they should offer those free agents and what kind of cap savings they would see if they were to replace them with their current players.

Here are the top ten free agents under $5 million.
