Rams schedule sets GM Les Snead up to audition Saints targets for trade deadline

Los Angeles Rams general manager Les Snead can be quite opportunistic. Whether armed with data analytics profiles from the Nerds Nest or just playing a hunch, he seems to know who is obtainable and who can improve his team. Right now, three of the top 15 players considered to be the top NFL trade deadline targets play for the 1-7 New Orleans Saints.

And the Saints are marching into SoFi Stadium to face Los Angeles in Week 8. Per Sports Illustrated's writer, Gilbert Manzano, the three Saints players who could be moved before the NFL trade deadline include wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, cornerback Alontae Taylor, and wide receiver Chris Olave.
