There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Saints never got to the one that mattered most. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Slaughter at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
