By Ross Jackson -LouisianaSports.net

As some teams finally begin reporting for training camp this week around the league, one of the boiling points of the NFL offseason is about to reach its peak.

30 of 32 second-round draft picks have not signed their contracts. Not because of anything malicious, as much as some have tried to derive panic from the situation. Instead, this is a simple matter of precedent.

No. 34 overall pick, the second selection of the second round, Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins received the first fully guaranteed second-round contract in league history. Because of that deal, No. 33 overall pick and Cleveland Browns linebacker Carson Schwesinger also got a fully guaranteed deal.

Now, the question for picks 34 through 64 isn’t whether they’ll receive fully guaranteed deals, it’s how much of their contracts will be guaranteed.

Earlier this week, we asked our readers to give us their thoughts if whether the New Orleans Saints should sign free agent CB Asante Samuel Jr.

An overwhelming 89% of voters said yes, they want Samuel in the Black and Gold. Unfortunately, there have not been any updates yet on whether he received medical clearance from the neck surgery he had in April. But Samuel already visited with the team in May so if the interest is still there and he can play this season, the start of training camp is just a week and half away, so we should know something pretty soon.

The unofficial start of the 2025 NFL season is right around the corner: training camp.

Many people look at the NFL Draft as that point, but I say once everyone is on the field together for camp, we’re off and rolling.

For the New Orleans Saints, there seems to be a ton of negativity from other places in the league. However, in the Big Easy, there’s almost a careful optimism about where this team is headed into the season.

But, when you add up a first-year head coach, a rookie quarterback, and new faces spread throughout the roster, you are looking at more questions than answers headed...

The New Orleans Saints kick off the 2025 season in just a couple months now. There aren’t a whole lot of expectations for the Saints, who have a brand-new coaching staff, a new quarterback and an aging roster, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some intriguing storylines heading into the season.

Outside of the obvious big ones against Buffalo, Tampa, Atlanta, etc., here are some of the matchups on the Saints schedule that I think are the most intriguing.

The Saints’ week seven matchup at the Chicago Bears is one of the more intriguing matchups they’ll have all season for a few reasons...

To round out the defensive portion of our division rankings series, we will examine the all-important safety position. Here’s how they stacked up:

Kevin Byard III leads Chicago’s safeties. He is a quality, productive player in the league who managed seven pass deflections in 2024 in addition to one interception. In complement, the Bears have former second-round pick Jaquan Brisker across the field.

The Lions have the top one-two punch in the NFL with Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch prowling the field. Joseph led the NFL with nine interceptions while Branch had four. Both are arguably...

The New Orleans Saints have been on the wrong end of many conversations from national media folks this offseason. However, one insider has predicted them to only win two games on the season.

On our next edition of the position groups, the cornerbacks are here. This position group is one of the most hit-or-miss in the league, but once a team finds its star, the whole defense is upgraded. Some teams have found their star, some value depth, and some have massive questions, so let’s see the rankings.

Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers

Going into the offseason, the Ravens had a decent group of corners with rookie Nate Wiggins having a good rookie season and slot corner Marlon Humphrey staying elite, but Baltimore made another addition that...

The New Orleans Saints continue to get harsh projections.

NFL Network’s Adam Rank has released his game-by-game prediction for each NFL team for the 2025 season. Rank has the Saints going 2-15 on the year.

Rank admits it’s a tough task to project the Saints, as they are one of the teams with the most questions entering the 2025 season. From hiring a first-time head coach in Kellen Moore and the likelihood of starting a rookie quarterback, no one knows how the team will perform.

Rank harshly has his doubts about New Orleans, having the team start the year with a 0-5 record. The NFL...
