By Ross Jackson - LouisianaSports.net

While the New Orleans Saints have been consistently linked to Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders in this year’s NFL Draft, the rumors and speculation has always felt at least unlikely to come to fruition.

Head coach Kellen Moore didn’t attend Colorado’s pro day, the Saints never had Sanders in for a top-30 visit, and the noise coming from Colorado head coach Deion Sanders was too loud not to be doubted.

Even after the explosive Derek Carr injury news, things didn’t feel like they were really about to shift for New Orleans in the draft. The Saints have never proven to be a reactionary team, sometimes operating with too much patience.

It seems that our suspicions that the Saints weren’t enthralled with Sanders wasn’t so farfetched.

The New Orleans Saints have a top 10 pick for the first time in what feels like forever (I was six the last time that happened, so for me, literally almost forever). Everyone’s talking about what the Saints are going to do at nine, and rightfully so. It’s arguably the most exciting draft night since 2008 for the organization, but nobody’s giving much talk to what they could do in the second round.

At nine, you obviously expect to find a franchise-changing player, but this is a deep class. There aren’t as many superstar talents as possible, but there will be valuable, starting-caliber...

With less than a week until the New Orleans Saints are on the clock, we asked our readers who would you like to see them draft with the 9th overall pick:

After 361 votes, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders won with 42% of the vote. With the news of Derek Carr’s shoulder injury, the Saints need for a quarterback is a bigger one as they face the potential of being without their starter for the whole season. Sanders is likely to be the second quarterback off the board regardless of who takes him, but there are some who have him ranked as the top quarterback in the draft such as ESPN’s Mel...

It’s official. New Orleans Saints OT Ryan Ramczyk is retiring from the NFL. Ramczyk made the announcement via his Instagram account earlier tonight.

“What an incredible journey it’s been. My path to the NFL wasn’t a straight line, it wasn’t the story most people expect. There were moments when people doubted me, moments when I doubted myself. It’s funny how life works out. Sometimes the road less traveled leads to places you never expected, but it ends up being exactly where you were meant to be.

NEW ORLEANS — New Orleans Saints right tackle Ryan Ramczyk announced his retirement from the NFL on Instagram Thursday night.

"What an incredible journey it’s been," Ramczyk wrote in the post, reflecting on his NFL career.

The former first-round pick had not played since 2023, when he started in 12 games before missing the last five games of the season.

During his career, he started in 101 games. Starting in 2018, Ramczyk was named to the Associated Press All-Pro Team for three straight years.

Next week, Ramczyk will announce the Saints' second-day draft picks in Green Bay.
