Pro Football Focus is currently running a series which focuses on a team’s departures during the offseason, and the amount of lost snaps as a result. The New Orleans Saints are up today, and came in ranking at 26th on offense, and 19th on defense.
Here’s a list of the New Orleans Saints largest culprits, as per the article.
Offense
- Ben Grubbs, Guard (1,152)
- Jonathan Goodwin, Center (865)
- Jimmy Graham, Tight End (790)
- Kenny Stills, Wide Receiver (626)
- Pierre Thomas, Running Back (305)
Grubbs and Graham were traded away in an effort to alleviate cap room, both present and future, with the former finding a new home in Kansas City while the latter was swapped for Max Unger from Seattle.
