Saints sign safety Julian Blackmon to one-year contract extension

Much needed signing.
Blackmon, Howden, Sanker and Reid… pretty low chance we go for Caleb Downs. I would love him given his chance to be a foundation lock for the next 10 years and change to a winning culture but we have bigger needs.
I still think if Downs is available at 8 we take him. It’s a little messy position-wise but this feels like some comfy insulation against potentially losing Alontae.
Apparently Sanker played a lot of snaps in the slot during college. Could definitely see them deciding not to keep Alontae
