Saints' Vonn Bell: Should start in 2017
Bell had 87 tackles (61 solo), one sack, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 16 games in 2016.
Analysis:
Bell did not play a single snap in Week 1, but the rookie's role quickly grew, and he actually replaced Jairus Byrd as the Saints' starting free safety in Week 4. Byrd is a potential cap casualty this offseason, but even if he returns to New Orleans, Bell should return as the starter in 2017.
