Predicting the Saints’ 53-man roster
Safeties
- Marcus Williams
- Vonn Bell
- Chauncey Gardner-Johnson
- Chris Banjo
- Saquon Hampton
Marcus Williams has developed into one of the better free safeties in the league due to his excellent range on the backend of the defense. Bell is a perfect complement as more of a box safety. How the Saints were able to draft the talented, versatile Gardner-Johnson in the fourth round is anyone’s guess. He should get plenty of playing time right away. Banjo is a core Special Teamer who provides more good depth. Hampton is a sixth-round pick with excellent speed who will mainly contribute on Special Teams early in his career.
Player to watch: Terrell Williams
