Trey Hendrickson trade rumors: Bengals have an asking price for former Saints DE

We've got an asking price for Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, the former New Orleans Saints draft pick who went on to earn four consecutive Pro Bowl nods after leaving in free agency. With the Bengals refusing to budge after months of contract talks, Cincinnati has begun hearing out trade offers from interested teams. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that while the Bengals shut down trade calls earlier this year by demanding a first-round pick from a team that offered only a second rounder, they've begun to "soften" on that price as Hendrickson's stalemate continues. The Athletic's Dianna Russini got more specific in what the Bengals are looking for: 'According to teams that have reached out, Cincinnati isn't only seeking draft capital in return; they're also targeting defensive players in a potential deal.' While there haven't been any rumors of the Saints getting involved just yet, one of their division rivals has made calls. NFL insider Jordan Schultz says the Carolina Panthers have been in contact with Cincinnati, as well as the Indianapolis Colts and the Bengals' own division-rival Cleveland Browns. While Russini clarified that the Bengals aren't necessarily wanting a defensive end to replace Hendrickson up front, so much as a young piece to help out somewhere defensively, you have to wonder if the Saints should step in here. Cameron Jordan is likely playing out the final year of his contract. Carl Granderson and Chase Young are a fine one-two punch but neither of them has shown consistent star power. Hendrickson had more sacks than all three of them combined last year. A Hendrickson-to-New Orleans trade would be hard to pull off for a couple of different reasons. The main thing is the price to acquire him. The Saints aren't in a position to be trading a draft pick which could be at the top of the round next year (even if it's the second round, not the first). They also don't have many young defensive players they could package in a trade. On paper, reuniting Bengals defensive coordinator Al Golden with former second-round pick Isaiah Foskey, a defensive end he coached at Notre Dame, might make sense. But Foskey has performed so poorly you'd think that outweighs the Notre Dame connection. Maybe the Saints could offload linebacker Pete Werner (saving $1.7 million against the cap this year and $2.2 million next year) to get rookie draft pick Danny Stutsman in the starting lineup next to Demario Davis. But Werner signed an extension last summer that made him the favorite to replace Davis once the veteran has retired in a year or two. Ironically, paying Hendrickson the contract he wants isn't the biggest hurdle here. Whether the Saints are starting Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler, or another rookie draft pick, they'll have the benefit of a low-cost quarterback contract on their side. That frees up money to pay other players. They have a lot of salary cap resources tied up at defensive end already, but not more than other teams around the league, and Jordan's anticipated retirement will make it easier to pay Hendrickson what he's seeking. Instead, it comes down to the state of the Saints. They don't look like a good football team. It's hard to buy them as a playoff contender. They don't have any business trading assets and investing in 30-year olds like Hendrickson. They need all the draft picks they can get to reload their roster with young talent. Bringing Hendrickson back where his career began would be a great story. But at this time it reads less like fact than fiction.

Was Chris Olave's 'uncharacteristic' drop vs. Jaguars really out of character?

One soundbite from the broadcast of the New Orleans Saints' second preseason game brushed some fans the wrong way -- wide receiver Chris Olave dropped a pass on third down that would've gained 13 yards and kept Tyler Shough's second drive alive, setting the Saints up inside the Jacksonville Jaguars' red zone. And the broadcast described the drop as "uncharacteristic" for the wideout. But was it really? Or has Olave become known for those kinds of lapses in focus and missed opportunities? The receiver was later shown sitting on the bench in clear agitation, so he's at least aware of the problem. But how big of a problem have drops become for him? Pro Football Reference and Stathead keep track of these things, and since Olave entered the league in 2022, he's been one of 28 wide receivers who have drawn at least 300 targets. And of those 28 wideouts, Olave is tied with Stefon Diggs for the sixth-worst drop rate, with 15 of his 301 targets hitting the turf (5.0%). Diggs has dropped 19 of his 378 targets in the same span of time. To put it another way, Olave has the same number of drops as DeVonta Smith (on 337 targets) and Mike Evans (373 targets). What about catch rate? Olave has caught 63.5% of those passes (191 out of 301), which ranks 19th within this group. Another metric PFR uses is success rate, which defines success as "a play that gains at least 40% of yards required on 1st down, 60% of yards required on 2nd down, and 100% on 3rd or 4th down." That stat puts Olave 14th, right in the middle of this group, with a 55.5% success rate. You don't need to tell Olave he needs to play better. He knows that as well as anyone. After missing so much time last year in between a couple of scary concussions, he hasn't quite looked like himself in the limited time we've seen him play this preseason. At the same time, he hasn't quite met expectations as the leader in the receiving room. These are the kinds of plays a WR1 needs to make. If he can't clean it up, he won't be wearing that title.

Saints reportedly in talks with Still's former club over deal for Guilavogui

SAINTS have reportedly opened talks with Will Still's former club, RC Lens, over a deal for forward Morgan Guilavogui. Guinea international Guilavogui is a right winger who can also play off the left and through the middle. He spent last season on loan at Bundesliga side St. Pauli, where he impressed. The 27 year old scored six goals for the recently promoted side as they finished 14th, seven points clear of automatic relegation. Fabrizio Romano has reported that negotiations are under way between the two clubs, but no agreement has been reached. The future of Southampton's right side is uncertain, with the club already rejecting bids for Tyler Dibling, while Sam Edozie appears destined to leave. Saints started their opening Championship fixture with Ryan Fraser on the right wing before moving him to wing-back, allowing for Mateus Fernandes to start at Ipswich. French-born forward Guilavogui played a full 90 minutes as Lens lost 1-0 to Lyon on the opening weekend of Ligue 1. St Pauli had exercised a purchase clause in their loan agreement with Lens before the French side used their buy-back option this summer. He initially joined Lens from Paris FC after firing 26 Ligue 2 goals in 63 appearances for the capital club across two seasons.
