Saints would be perfect team to trade for Browns' Emmanuel Ogbah

The New Orleans Saints have been active in their search to replace Alex Okafor. Their third defensive end — who shared playing-time with 2017 All-Pro Cameron Jordan and 2018 first round pick Marcus Davenport — left in free agency to sign a $24 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs. That prompted the Saints to host Ziggy Ansah on a free agent visit and explore a trade for Robert Quinn, though neither move materialized.

New Orleans can absolutely roll into 2019 with Jordan and Davenport bookending the line. But they have just one other defensive end on the roster in Trey Hendrickson, who only appeared in five regular season games last year.
