Saints may be close to extending Alontae Taylor as Week 1 approaches, per Fowler and Graziano. The market is heating up with Luke Goedeke’s extension and Daron Bland’s deal, using the Parsons trade as a benchmark for big contracts. The piece flags Taylor, Lake, Hutchinson, and Meyers as extension targets to watch, while Week 1 urgency could accelerate deals slow-played over the spring and summer. Taylor’s health progress adds fantasy angles to the Saints’ secondary blueprint.

Fantasy managers should monitor whether Taylor lands a new deal, which would shore up the Saints’ boundary defense and stabilize his weekly cornerback upside. The column also points to other extension candidates—Hutchinson, Smith, Lake, Meyers—who could reshape their team’s ceilings and impact instant-matchups in early-season lineups.
