Here's a couple of variants for saving throws when it concerns a number of spells for which one has a proficient save. I've made three Variants: 1) Even Number of Saving Throws, and 2) Martial Prowess - these two variants are based on changing the Saving Throw associated with specific spells. Variant 3) Adding Proficiencies to Martial Classes addresses the same issue as Variant 2, but from a different direction.
Let's start with a baseline. There are 144 spells in the game which require a saving throw (See Spoiler 1 - List of Spells with a Saving Throw). For reference, there are 362 spells in the PHB.
If we tally up what each saving throw is for all the spells, this is what we get:
Str: 8 Spells
Dex: 41 Spells
Con: 34 Spells
Wis: 44 Spells
Int: 4 Spells
Cha: 13 Spells
Dex, Con, and Wis Saving Throws rule the game. But we already knew that; those are the common saving throws, whereas Str, Int, and Cha are the uncommon saving throws.
Every class gets one common and one uncommon saving throw. How does that play out when it comes to the number of spells a class has a decent chance of passing (aka they have proficiency in that saving throw)?

If we were to rank the classes by the number of spells which they have a proficient saving throw, it would look like this:
1: Cleric/Paladin/Warlock
2: Bard
3: Monk/Ranger
4: Druid
5: Sorcerer
6: Rogue
7: Barbarian/Fighter
Variant 1: Even Saving Throws
In this variant, the type of saving throw a spell requires has been changed so that they are evenly split among all the saving throws. Since there are 144 spells which have a saving throw, it breaks down to an easy 24 spells per save. If you look in Spoiler 1 - List of Spells with a Saving Throw, under the column "Variant 1," you can see which spells have been changed to what saving throw.
Most of the spells have a semblance of sense, at least to me. I will give warning, though, once I had all the spells rearranged so they made sense and matched the 24 required spells per saving through, I was still left with 37 spells under Dex and 11 spells under Int. I wasn't quite sure what to do, so I just changed 13 non-elemental dex-saved spells to int-saved spells. It doesn't really make sense to me, but it worked for the purposes of forcing all the saving-throw spells into 24 per saving throw. They are evenly split.
Each class now has an even number of spells for which they will have a decent chance at succeeding a saving throw.
I think this variant makes for some interesting analysis for which class would be good/bad at what spells. As the Battlemaster determines what class someone is, a spell caster can determine which spells are likely to be ineffective - and it's evenly split across the board for how many spells wouldn't work.
Variant 2 - Martial Prowess
I made this Variant for two reasons. 1) I grew up on 2nd edition, and the warrior classes (fighter, ranger, paladin) had the best saving throws in the game by the end of the game. I wanted to recreate that feel by giving them the most number of spells to be proficient against in the game (compared to the caster classes). 2) The power disparity between martials and casters still exists in 5e, albeit not as much as some other editions. This variant may help balance that out a bit as the martial classes are difficult to hit with spells.
In Spoiler 1 - List of Spells with a Saving Throw, you'll see the column for Variant 2 - Martial Prowess. This column shows what a particular spell/s saving throw has changed to to make this Variant happen.
In this variant, I made all the Physical Saving Throws have at least 32 spells which they save against and the Mental Saving Throws have at most 16. Here's the breakdown:
Str: 33 Spells
Dex: 41 Spells
Con: 34 Spells
Wis: 16 Spells
Int: 8 Spells
Cha: 12 Spells
Total: 144
Now, the number of spells each class saves against looks like this:
Barb: 67
Bard: 53
Cler: 28
Dru: 24
Figh: 67
Monk: 74
Pal: 28
Rang: 74
Rog: 49
Sor: 46
War: 46
Wiz: 24
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it now looks like this:
1: Monk/Ranger
2: Barbarian/Fighter
3: Bard
4: Rogue
5: Sorcerer
6: Warlock
7: Cleric/Paladin
8: Druid/Wizard
Now, almost all the martial classes have the best magical defense in the game; they don't have a better saving throw than anyone else, but they can save against more spells than anyone else. I know the paladin ended up getting the short end of the martial stick here, but the paladin also gets a cool ability to add their charisma save to every saving throw at level 6, so I think it balances it off a bit.
When I first shared this Variant with a friend, he commented that it was a bit weird that the people who study magic the most are the least likely to make a saving throw against that same magic. Remember, though, that intelligence has the least number of saving throws in the game (4, and one of those is self-inflicted), so already we're not associating intelligent or studying with magical defense. This variant just takes it a step further and gives those with the most physical stature the best magical defense as if they could power right through it.

Some people may want to include AC in the analysis for the types of defenses a class has against a spell, and that's a fair point to make. If we assume some classes will have a high AC compared to other classes, we can include them in our analysis.
For the purposes of this analysis, I'm classifying certain classes as AC classes. That is, classes which we can reasonably expect to have an AC above 20 during a good portion of the game. Sometimes a good build will change that, but I'm trying to consider generalities here, not niche cases.
The high AC classes are: Barbarian, Cleric, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, and Ranger.
I've already included the AC spells in the above table, found in Spoiler 1 - List of Spells with a Saving Throw.
Looking at the baseline, here's the new list for the number of spells a class will have a good defense against:
Barb: 65
Bard: 54
Cler: 80
Dru: 48
Figh: 65
Monk: 72
Pal: 80
Rang: 72
Rog: 45
Sor: 47
War: 57
Wiz*: 48
*Wizard Bladesinger can have a good AC, which brings this number up to 71
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it looks like this:
1: Cleric/Paladin
2: Monk/Ranger
3: Barbarian/Fighter
4: Warlock
5: Bard
6: Druid/Wizard*
7: Sorcerer
8: Rogue
Poor rogue.
*Bladesinger will move to rank 3, dropping the rest down one rank.
Variant 1
Since there are exactly 23 spells which target AC, I decided not to alter Variant 1: Even Saving Throws. It does mean that any given character with a high AC will have a good defense against 23 more spells than a class which does not (approximately a 33% increase in the number of spells).
Variant 2
If we include AC spells in this variant, the number of spells for which a class has a good defense changes to this:
Barb: 90
Bard: 53
Cler: 51
Dru: 24
Figh: 90
Monk: 97
Pal: 51
Rang: 97
Rog: 49
Sor: 46
War: 46
Wiz: 24
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it now looks like this:
1: Monk/Ranger
2: Barbarian/Fighter
3: Bard
4: Cleric/Paladin
5: Rogue
6: Warlock/Sorcerer
7: Druid/Wizard
So the primary difference is that the Cleric and Paladin move up over the Rogue.
It still has a solid effect for Martial Prowess, so I think it's still valid.
Let's say that you don't want to change a bunch of spells and try to remember what saving throw that you've changed them to, is there another way to get the same feel as Variant 2? Yes! It's as simple as giving the martial classes a third saving throw proficiency without changing anything else in the game.
Here's my proposed saving throw proficiencies for the martial classes:
Barbarian: Str, Dex, Con
Fighter: (Str, Con, Wis) OR (Dex, Con, Int)
Monk: Str, Dex, Wis
Ranger: Str, Dex, Con
Rogue: Dex, Int, Cha
I didn't want to add to the paladin because of their charisma bonus to all their saves.
Without Considering AC
The number of spells each class has a good defense (saving throw) changes to:
Barb: 83
Bard: 54
Cler: 57
Dru: 48
Figh: 78/79
Monk: 93
Pal: 57
Rang: 83
Rog: 58
Sor: 47
War: 57
Wiz: 48
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it now looks like this:
1: Monk
2: Barbarian/Ranger
3: Fighter
4: Rogue
5: Cleric/Paladin/Warlock
6: Bard
7: Druid/Wizard
8: Sorcerer
With AC Consideration
Barb: 108
Bard: 54
Cler: 80
Dru: 48
Figh: 101/102
Monk: 116
Pal: 80
Rang: 106
Rog: 58
Sor: 47
War: 57
Wiz: 48
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it now looks like this:

Barbarian: Str, Dex, Con
Fighter: (Str, Con, Wis) OR (Dex, Con, Int)
Monk: Str, Dex, Wis
Ranger: Str, Dex, Con
Rogue: Dex, Int, Cha
I didn't want to add to the paladin because of their charisma bonus to all their saves.
Without Considering AC
The number of spells each class has a good defense (saving throw) changes to:
Barb: 83
Bard: 54
Cler: 57
Dru: 48
Figh: 78/79
Monk: 93
Pal: 57
Rang: 83
Rog: 58
Sor: 47
War: 57
Wiz: 48
If we were to rank them in the order of how many spells they can save against, it now looks like this:
1: Monk
2: Barbarian/Ranger
3: Fighter
4: Rogue
5: Cleric/Paladin/Warlock
6: Bard
7: Druid/Wizard
8: Sorcerer
With AC Consideration
Barb: 108
Bard: 54
Cler: 80
Dru: 48
Figh: 101/102
Monk: 116
Pal: 80
Rang: 106
Rog: 58
Sor: 47
War: 57
Wiz: 48
