2020 Saints roster locks, long-shots, and those on the roster bubble

The New Orleans Saints have assembled a talented 90-man roster for the 2020 season, but which players are locks, long shots, and on the edge

Offensive tackles

Locks:

  • Terron Armstead
  • Ryan Ramczyk

On the bubble:

  • Patrick Omameh
  • Ethan Greenidge
  • Derrick Kelly

Long shots:

  • Calvin Throckmorton
  • Darrin Paulo
  • Jordan Steckler

The Saints must come up with a better plan in case Amrstead misses time than moving left guard Andrus Peat out of position to replace him. Hopefully that turns out to be Greenidge, who never took the field last year but was on hand for every game. It could also be Omameh, who filled in admirably on a short week against the Atlanta Falcons on Thanksgiving. Kelly has strictly played right tackle, and spent the season on the practice squad.

Paulo is an interest dark horse to consider. He’s predominately played left tackle in college at Utah, and could make a serious push to become Armstead’s understudy. Throckmorton and Steckler have seen more action on the right side, with some of their snaps played at guard.
