Should New Orleans Saints have been active at NFL Trade Deadline?

The New Orleans Saints thankfully did not trade Alvin Kamara at the NFL Trade Deadline, but they also made no moves. Bradley Chubb, Chase Claypool, Roquan Smith and other stars were on the move this mid-season. Should the Saints have been buyers? Or even sellers? What the Saints had available, what they could have moved and why Michael Thomas, Jarvis Landry, Marshon Lattimore and others being set to return from injury may have deterred them from acting hastily.

Alvin Kamara’s two big catch and run touchdowns put the Las Vegas Raiders defense in a spin cycle. How Pete Carmichael and Dennis Allen schemed up the right calls to target the Raiders weaknesses. Ryan Ramczyk demolished Maxx Crosby on Sunday, forcing him into a goose egg when it comes to pressures for the first time since 2020.
