The New Orleans Saints have been in search of some weaponry for their new quarterback Derek Carr, now adding his former Las Vegas Raider teammate Bryan Edwards to the wide receiver room.
While they have enough bodies to go into next season with, they may not been done adding options. A lot of the receivers have similar builds and play styles. They could look to the draft to add different kinds of receivers.
For now, here is how the room is coming along after a couple of weeks of free agency:
