Aside from QB and a Head coach, what does this team need?

People forget the Baltimore Ravens are a few monumental collapses away from being undefeated, they are a true contending team. We are not.
In all seriousness, we'll be battling for the dunce cap of this division, but moving forward into this offseason...what are this teams biggest need?
Offense:
WR: Aside from Olave, we don't really have any dependable WR. Michael Thomas is still under contract, but that's not very viable as a 2nd option with his injury prone history now.
TE: We also have mediocre receiving TEs, Trautman is solid as a blocker, but he's nothing more than that. Hill isn't a real tight end.
RB: After Kamara, its nobody. Ingram is old. Washington is trash. We gotta find one in the mid-rounds IMHO
OL: Currently we're set for another year, esp lets see how Penning is as well.
QB: Obvious.
Defense:
DE: We have Turner and Jordan, Davenport is a free agent. Perfect opportunity to buy low on him, but I don't think this is our problem compared to...
DT: Holy shite this group is atrocious. Onyemata is a 1 man crew, nobody else can do anything. We need to draft a high round one now.
LB: Set for now with DD, Werner, and Elliss. Can find a backup in FA
Safety: We have Maye and TM for another year, but this is a smart time to find the next starter.
DB: We have a solid slew of them, too bad they're injury prone. But finding Taylor was golden.

Be careful what you wish for.
Unless you happen to live in the city the new owner will move the team to.

If not, we’re fricked

We need a bowling ball Running Back.. A GARDNER-JOHNSON clone.. DT's that can put pressure on the QB.. A decent TE..

Was thinking this same thing, maybe look outside oschner for a staff physician. Not sure if Saints know it or not but you don’t have to hire a local doctor… healthcare in Louisiana isn’t really that great….

I think one of the biggest problems with our team is the inability to run the ball. We may be ranked 12th in rushing but my god. Against good teams we can’t run the ball. We need a pounding back with Kamara and focus on running the ball more next year. I truly don’t think we’ll be able to get a top QB. We need to build this team with depth rn. Look at our wins, when we can run the ball and not have to rely on our QBs to throw 30,40 times a game, we are good.

A GM...oh, and an owner.

1. DT (even onyemata has struggled). This other than qb is the biggest need. And it’s not close
2. LG (Peat needs to go and i rank this position this high because of money needed to be freed up as well and he’s not really good. Post June 1 cut saves 11 mill).
3. Safety (badger isn’t worth the money).
4. Wr
5. RB (big need but value just isn’t there. Can find one in the later rounds.)

An owner and GM willing to tear it all down. We are past that point now, though.
Terry Fontenot is doing work in Atlanta, and it's the blueprint we shouldve used.

Its easy to tear down. Its not easy to build up.

They already arguably have the best team in the division, have cleared tons of space, and accumulated draft capital. The build up is already trending up
We have an aging roster with no clear path for a turnaround, no cap space, and limited draft capital

little different situations. They did eat a huge cap chunk ridding of matt ryan. we're all shite in a shite division. Just saying, them being a playoff contender is a long ways away and no guarantee at this point.
