Kellen Moore opened up on the Saints' trade talks with the Jaguars leading up to and after their preseason game, and why the team wanted Luke Fortner:

Luke Fortner is the newest member of the New Orleans Saints. The center was traded by the Jacksonville Jaguars for defensive tackle Khalen Saunders . Saunders had been listed behind newly acquired Davon Godchaux on the Saints' depth chart, and Fortner is projected to serve as the backup for Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy.

Why did the Jacksonville Jaguars trade away offensive lineman Luke Fortner to acquire defensive tackle Khalen Saunders from the New Orleans Saints? For one, bolstering the defensive tackle depth was a need for the Jaguars.
