The Saints need help in the pass-rushing department after losing linebacker Hau'oli Kikaha for the entire 2016 season, so McCain may be able to help them as a situational pass rusher from the edge.

The Dolphins did not use McCain much, and he was shuffled around between linebacker and defensive end. In the end, they decided to cut ties with the 24-year-old pass rusher without much in return.

McCain might be able to earn a few sacks with New Orleans, but he won't play enough (or make enough of a defensive impact) to be a viable fantasy option in 2016.
