Guests of hotels and other lodging in the Las Vegas area are paying a room tax that over time will contribute $750 million for the project. The bonds allow
for the financing of the public's share.
The NFL and the team, which has secured a bank loan, are covering the remainder of the project.
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (12-6)
OPEN CAMP: July 26, Ochsner Sports Performance Center, Metairie

LAST YEAR: Helped by infusion of elite young talent, Saints pulled out of three-year rut of mediocrity and won NFC South. They were seconds away from
advancing to NFC title game, only to be thwarted by Minnesota receiver Stefon
Diggs' winning touchdown as time expired in divisional round. New Orleans
received major contributions from running back and Offensive Rookie of Year
Alvin Kamara, and cornerback and Defensive Rookie of Year Marshon Lattimore.
Several other first-and second-year players filled regular roles as well, and
veteran Drew Brees remained one of NFL's top QBs.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: LB Demario Davis, S Kurt Coleman

IMPORTANT LOSSES: S Kenny Vaccaro, TE Coby Fleener, WR Willie Snead, G Senio Kelemete

CAMP NEEDS: Lineup is relatively stable from last-season's playoff run, but New Orleans looking to bolster pass rush by finding someone who can make
offenses pay for sending multiple blockers at All-Pro end Cameron Jordan. Saints
want Davenport to develop into that player. But he is raw in first season out of
UTSA. Saints also want to figure out which running backs can fill in for Mark
Ingram during his four-game suspension to open season. Veteran free agents Shane
Vereen and Terrence West, along with draft pick Boston Scott and second-year pro
Trey Edmunds, are competing for those snaps.
EXPECTATIONS: Saints appear to have gotten stronger and deeper than last season, particularly with additions on defense. Keys to improving are how well
new players fit and

Jordan could give New Orleans fits.
