The Saints are reloading their defensive line with four rookies and a second-round pick, aiming to fix their run-stopping woes after finishing 19th last year. Veteran Bryan Bresee and rookie Vernon Broughton need to finish plays more consistently, while Nathan Shepherd remains steady but unremarkable. The team’s search for a dominant nose tackle continues, with Davon Godchaux and John Ridgeway III on the bubble. Christen Miller, the new second-rounder, is expected to start, joined by Zxavian Harris and undrafted rookies Keeshawn Silver and Jay’Viar Suggs. The key isn’t sacks — it’s interior disruption and gap control to set up the edge rushers, something the Saints have struggled with for three seasons.
