Now that the New Orleans Saints have retained All-Pro wide receiver Michael Thomas, some may assume the work is done with the team’s group of pass-catches. Young wideouts Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed has fantastic rookie campaigns in 2022, the team brings back one of the league’s most dominant pass-catchers in Thomas and re-signed ascending tight end Juwan Johnson to a two-year deal However, there is still work to be done, particularly in the wide receiver room.
While Thomas is undoubtedly dominant, health and availability concerns linger. And not just for Thomas, but for the Saints as a whole who have been riddled with injuries over the last few seasons. Shoring up the position with another option would be a smart choice by the organization. We highlighted earlier in the week that Las Vegas Raiders slot receiver Hunter Renfrow would make a ton of sense as a trade target, but the Saints could also look to free agency and the NFL draft if that deal can’t be struck in time.
