Potential loss: CB Patrick Robinson

Salary cap savings: $3.65 million

Replacement: Levonta Taylor, Florida State

Taylor spent some time at free safety in 2020, but he’s a natural fit defending from the slot, which was Robinson’s main priority last season. Some of that is due to Taylor’s smaller stature (he’s listed at 5-foot-10), but he’s shown a great comprehension of passing concepts and his role within the defense, which is exactly what the Saints need to cut down on coverage breakdowns and panic-in-the-moment penalties.
