Updated Saints 53-man roster projection after first wave of free agency

The New Orleans Saints have been busy in the opening days of free agency, working quickly to re-sign many of their own pending free agents while restructuring deals with veterans. They’ve also completed the procedural moves to get them above the 53-man threshold for a regular season roster, so we took a quick stab at what that projection looks like.

We did limit the picks to players currently under contract, except where the lack of options makes that impossible (at quarterback and cornerback, where a total of five players are signed on for the 2020 season). Here’s our first guess:

Veteran free agent QB
RB Alvin Kamara
RB Latavius Murray
RB Taquan Mizzell
FB Ricky Ortiz
TE Josh Hill
TE Garrett Griffin
LT Terron Armstead
LT Ethan Greenidge
RG Larry Warford
RT Ryan Ramczyk
RT Derrick Kelly
WR Michael Thomas
WR Deonte Harris
WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey
WR Maurice Harris
LS Zach Wood
P Thomas Morstead
K Wil Lutz
DE Cameron Jordan
DE Marcus Davenport
DE Trey Hendrickson
DE Mario Edwards
DE Carl Granderson
NT Malcom Brown
DT David Onyemata
DT Shy Tuttle
DT Sheldon Rankins
NT Taylor Stallworth
LB Demario Davis
LB Alex Anzalone
LB Craig Robertson
LB Kaden Elliss
LB Chase Hansen
