The New Orleans Saints' third-round pick Jonas Sanker could quickly earn a starting safety role. This versatile defender from Virginia showcased impressive tackling ability and coverage skills in college.

New defensive coordinator Brandon Staley's 3-4 scheme reshapes the Saints' defensive line. Players like Bryan Bresee, Davon Godchaux and Khalen Saunders adapt to new roles as 3-4 ends and nose tackles.

Improving yards after catch (YAC) looms large for the Saints' offense. With speedsters like Brandin Cooks joining Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed, new head coach Kellen Moore aims to boost the team's bottom-third YAC ranking.
