What do you think are a must-get for the Saints before the season starts?

WR for me.
It's Thomas and Snead and that's it. Sure, Brees has made chicken salad out of chicken shite in previous seasons with unknowns at WR, but this year it's a glaring weakness outside of Thomas. Fleener didn't look good last year, either.
Need a to sign another this offseason since we are an injury away from having Brandon Coleman/Willie Snead as our top guy.

We already signed Ginn Jr. Why did you leave him off?

Helmets they have to get helmets

They need a more reliable receiver than Coleman. But that's kind of luxury more than need.
They have 3 wr, 2 te, 2 rb who can catch consistently.
Offense is set. It's defense that needs work

Easily wr.
Our defensive depth aren't great players but they're all about the same. You're also not going to get significant upgrades at this point in the offseason. After our top 2 WRs we have a huge drop off to the point where we'd struggle to consistently move the ball against decent defenses. I also think we could find a vet at some point for reasonably cheap that could provide depth. If we're hobbled on offense this season could get ugly.

After this draft I would say they must get additional medical personnel

I wouldn't mind another WR vet for depth , but at the same time how often do those guys work out? I hope someone like TommyLee or Dural show something to step up as that 4/5 option with more hunger than an older guy collecting a check.
I also think Kamara makes absolutely needing another guy not as important. I'd imagine our top 4 pass catchers will be Thomas, Snead, Fleener, Kamara, Ginn maybe even Ingram.

pass rushers, maybe teams who drafted pass rushers will be cutting some older vets loose that can still play.
we have done nothing to make me think we improved on the number of sacks the defense will get this year. we need to disrupt opposing QB or its going to be another 7-9 season

Arizona has this WR Jaron Brown, I think he would be a great sleeper to bring in.

I wouldn't say we have a must need, but the 2 positions that we could bring in after the cuts happen are DE & WR. Finding a starting 3-down DE would be nice, & another legit WR would help.
Our depth is fine at every position besides WR(should be able to get by if we stay healthy though). Some people keep saying we need depth on defense, but I just don't see it. You can make a case that we need better starters on defense, but the depth looks like a huge strength.
Onyemata's versatilty helps the DT & DE positions.
DT - Fairley, Rankins, Davison, Onyemata, Ashaad Mabry
DE - Jordan, Kikaha, Onyemata, Okafor, Trey Hendrickson, Tapp, Gwachum, Al-Quadin Muhammad
LB - Ellerbe, Robertson, Klein, Alex Anzalone, Stupar, Anthony, Te'o
CB - Breaux, Marshon Lattimore, PJ Williams, Sterling Moore, Crawley, Swann, DeVante Harris
S - Vaccaro, Bell, Marcus Williams, Rafael Bush, Erik Harris, Banjo
Our depth on offense is even better...we have a legit #2 QB, one of the best RB situations in the league, 4 rosterable TE's, & one of the best O-Line situations in the league.
Basically our entire roster is set unless we find a legit WR or a DE starter after cuts happen(obviously having injuries in the preseason could add another position to this list). We also have plenty of money to acquire them. We're in a very good situation going into training camp...relative to the last couple of years.

We need to get Payton all the pussy he can handle up to training camp starts. That way he can focus on being a coach instead of chasing tail.

Figure out their quarterback situation. Wait, this isn't the Rant?
