A breakdown of the initial wave of free agency for the New Orleans Saints:
Overall grade: C-plus. The Saints have shown restraint -- which can often be the smartest strategy in free agency -- by not overpaying for some of the big names they considered, such as Jimmy Graham, Ndamukong Suh, Jordy Nelson and Muhammad Wilkerson. And they have added several veterans in the second- and third-tier price ranges who should help immediately (including LB Demario Davis, S Kurt Coleman, CB Patrick Robinson and TE Benjamin Watson).
