This year’s 53-man roster deadline is August 27, and although that seems like a bit far away from today, the final roster is already being theorized by teams. For the New Orleans Saints , this will be a very interesting year for the final roster due to where the team currently is. Some young players may get the nod over veterans due to their potential rather than current skill. The Saints are not in a position to win now, so having some of those high-potential/low-floor young players on the roster could be worth it. Saying this, the Saints also do not want to tank this season and need to put Kellen Moore in a position to succeed immediately. This creates a bit of a conundrum for New Orleans, but here is how the final 53-man roster could look.
