Props to Alvin Kamara for making the most of his offseason. The New Orleans Saints running back headlined “The Catch” sport fishing tournament in Florida last week, teaming up with Miami Dolphins star Raheem Mostert to win the whole thing. They competed with other NFL players including Kamara’s former Saints teammates Trey Hendrickson and Jameis Winston.

One of the highlights of the fishing rodeo came when Kamara and two of his teammates hooked three sailfish at the same time. Kamara described it as “Chaos. Organized chaos … It was great. Lot of moving parts, but I think we did it...

The New Orleans Saints are in the midst of their most important offseason in recent memory. The 2024 NFL Draft could make or break this middle-of-the-road roster in the upcoming season after three consecutive years of missing the NFL Playoffs.

The 2024 NFL Draft is right around the corner, which is always full of unexpected surprises that are hard to predict but we are still going to have some fun with it anyway. The New Orleans Saints currently hold the #14 pick, will they trade up, trade down, stay at 14? Who will go #1 overall? Will a top prospect fall? There is so much to look forward to but first, let’s take a look at some of the Canal Street Chronicles staff’s predictions for this year’s draft:

The New Orleans Saints still have needs heading into the 2024 NFL Draft, but many can still be solved. Since Dennis Allen took over as head coach, the Saints showed the ability to identify the biggest need on the team and draft a solution. This was shown in 2022 with the picks of Trevor Penning and Chris Olave and the draft picks of Bryan Bresee and Isaiah Foskey in 2023. Tackle and wide receiver were by far the biggest need in 2022, and defensive tackle and edge rusher were the biggest need in 2023. Although some of these players have not fully worked out, the team still drafted what was...

We’re officially days away from the 2024 NFL draft. 257 men will hear their names called and see their dreams turn into reality. The New Orleans Saints still have plenty of needs to address in the draft and are looking to find future superstars in this draft. Today, I did a mock draft, making picks that I think we could see the black and gold make. I drafted based on the positions of need, talent, potential, and what I saw on tape.

Now with all of this being said, let’s take a look at the selections I made for the Saints:

A year ago, the New Orleans Saints drafted Jordan Howden in the fifth round — and the safety turned out to be a pleasant surprise for a Day 3 prospect.

With the NFL Draft this week, the Times-Picayune reached out to a series of draft experts to get their takes on the New Orleans Saints and how the upcoming event might play out for them. Next up: ESPN’s Jordan Reid,…

Here’s a look at a few different trade packages we could see the New Orleans Saints making moves for

According to one of the biggest NFL Draft experts at The Athletic, the Black and Gold should stay where they are. Here’s his explanation.

We put a poll out asking you for your thoughts on who the Saints should draft. Let us know your thoughts!

The Atlanta Falcons are facing serious tampering allegations with the possibility of losing draft picks, per ESPN reporter Adam Schefter. The tampering allegations stem from the Falcons’ signing of former free-agent Kirk Cousins.

Both the Philadelphia Eagles and the Falcons are currently under investigation for tampering. According to Schefter, the discipline for both teams is “likely to involve draft picks.” The league could announce disciplinary actions as early as this week.

Atlanta currently holds the eighth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. They have a total of eight draft picks...

The 2024 NFL draft is just days away and the New Orleans Saints have yet to make a trade with their second-round selection. That means, as of now, they will drafting at No. 45 in the second round. It hasn’t been a spot that the Saints have drafted at in recent history, but it is a spot that has seen a lot of successful players enter the NFL.

The best player to come from No. 45 overall in recent history is undoubtedly running back Derrick Henry. Henry was a four-time Pro Bowler with the Tennessee Titans before signing with the Baltimore Ravens this offseason.

Here is every player to come from the No. 45 spot in the last 20 years:

The 2024 NFL Draft is right around the corner and the New Orleans Saints currently have the 14th pick in the 1st round. There has been lots of chatter over what the Saints could do in this year’s draft and this week, all that will only be amplified. Should they pick at 14, move up or move down? As always, we want to hear from you. What do you think the Saints will do on Thursday night? Vote in this week’s poll and let us know.

The New Orleans Saints have a lot of needs to address in the 2024 NFL Draft following an underwhelming offseason. Some needs are significantly more pressing than others for Dennis Allen's team, though.

It was another heartbreaker for Pels, so can they regroup for Game 2? What about Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas in first round, and can Saints make a move on second day for more picks?

It may seem far-fetched to think the New Orleans Saints could pick multiple players from the same school in the 2024 NFL draft. After all, teams are picking from a pool of hundreds of players, and even if the Saints own nine selections that’s just a drop in the bucket of this year’s 257 picks. The odds of two college teammates continuing to compete together on the same team after turning pro can’t be good.

But it’s more likely than you’d think. In the 57 years (and 57 drafts) since the team was founded in 1967, the Saints have double-dipped by picking players from the same schools in 22 different drafts. And some years they went back to the same wells in the same draft classes by picking pairs of players from multiple programs. Obviously that’s easier to do in the early days when the draft had 17 rounds, or 12, rather than just seven like we’ve come to know during the last 30 years.

In total, the Saints have picked two players from the same school a surprising 33 times. They once drafted three players from Michigan in the same year (Paul Seal, Larry Cipa, and Don Coleman in 1974). Since Mickey Loomis began running their draft in 2003 they’ve double-dipped like this six times, and twice in his first year on the job. Most recently they drafted a pair of Ohio State Buckeyes in 2016, both in the second round: wide receiver Michael Thomas and safety Vonn Bell.

Who else has taken this path? Here’s the full list:
