New Orleans Saints 2019 NFL draft outlook: Offensive tackle

By Josh Katzenstein, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune

The New Orleans Saints have two of the best offensive tackles in the NFL with Terron Armstead and Ryan Ramczyk, but they still might seek some help at the position in the draft.

Jermon Bushrod, the top backup option last season, is still a free agent, and although the team likes Michael Ola, he spent more time practicing at guard than tackle last year.

Armstead was a Pro Bowl left tackle in 2018, but he still missed six games as he continued to be plagued by injuries. The 27-year-old Armstead hasn’t played more than 10 games in any of the past three seasons, so as good as he is when he’s healthy, left tackle depth is critically important for the Saints, though they benefit from left guard Andrus Peat’s ability to move to tackle at times.

Alontae Taylor has been vocal on social media this offseason. After the Philadelphia Eagles blew out the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, Taylor walked away impressed with Kellen Moore and the Eagles defense.

Taylor sent a message to Moore via Instagram Live, “we need the best defensive coordinator you can find that’s available.” Taylor wanted Moore to bring the aggressive, dominant defense he saw at the Super Bowl to New Orleans.

The New Orleans Saints hired Brandon Staley. Staley hails from the Fangio coaching tree and spent his first three years in the NFL under now-Eagles...

The 2025 NFL Combine is nearly here, and this will be a massive week for the New Orleans Saints. The coaching staff is almost complete, and this will be the first time they can get their eyes on some prospects as a collective group. Regarding the Combine as a whole, this is the time when certain prospects’ positions on draft boards drastically change. Also, it is important to note that the combine is not just about the prospects.

Rumors swirl during this week, but many have some truth behind them. Last year, the stories of Kirk Cousins to the Atlanta Falcons rumors gained momentum during...

These 2025 NFL QB rankings have Derek Carr second-worst in the NFL

Derek Carr isn’t guaranteed to be the New Orleans Saints starting quarterback in 2025, but if he is, FanDuel believes the Saints will have the second-worst starting quarterback in the NFL.

FanDuel took the liberty of speculating what quarterbacks will change teams in the offseason, so it should be assumed Spencer Rattler wouldn’t beat out Carr in the situation or that Rattler’s ranking would be in the same place.

What’s notable is Carr is behind four quarterbacks who didn’t start last season: Justin Fields, J.J. McCarthy, Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward.

Sanders and Ward may be the NFL...

ESPN: Saints starter should sign with the Jets in 2025 free agency

The NFL offseason is here, and the New Orleans Saints have gotten the big decision out of the way by hiring their new head coach, Kellen Moore. Now they have to wait until free agency opens up in early March, and will have time to discuss which of their own they wish to keep, and who should depart.

One of the players that will hit free agency is 2020 undrafted free agent Juwan Johnson, who the Saints have developed from a wide receiver into a serviceable tight end. Despite that, minimal growth in 2024 and struggles to truly break out as a quality weapon on offense has left the Saints with...

Saints legend Drew Brees gives his thoughts on quarterbacks in the 2025 NFL Draft

The New Orleans Saints are going into the 2025 offseason with uncertainty at quarterback. Derek Carr may be a cut candidate but could stay for another season if Kellen Moore believes in him. Spencer Rattler is a great young option that the organization seems to love, but it is unknown how Moore feels about him, so if those two options are not the final decision, the NFL Draft will probably be where the Saints will find their future starting QB.

Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders have been the top 2 quarterback prospects for much of the process, but there are still some worries about these two...

The New Orleans Saints now have a Super Bowl winner as their head coach, with the former offensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles Kellen Moore joining up to take a crack at it once again from a new perspective. Moore will look to break out from the shadow of Nick Sirianni to create his own scheme, roster, and culture.

One of the things that does happen rather often in the NFL is teams attempting to replicate the success they see. We have seen it before with the dynasty New England Patriots and their coaches being poached on a yearly basis, the Kansas City Chiefs and their coaches...

The New Orleans Saints have been extremely lucky in having a player like Taysom Hill for many seasons now, who can do essentially everything on the football field. The Sean Payton product has developed into a critical part of the Saints offense, and even with Payton gone now, Hill has remained exceptional with a new scheme.

This type of player is desired all around the NFL, and now Sean Payton has made it clear that he is looking for a similar type of player as well. This makes for an intriguing dynamic for the 2025 NFL Draft, as we can get to see who he personally thinks fits that type...

The New Orleans Saints are heading into 2025 NFL free agency with at least 19 players set to be free agents, which is quite a substantial list to say the least. This group includes multiple quality contributors, and one of the most notable players would be the Saints’ third-round pick in the 2021 NFL draft, Paulson Adebo.

Retaining Adebo may be a worthy investment for the team, and despite the major leg injury which ended his 2024 season, his recovery has seemed swift throughout the offseason so far. ESPN analyst Matt Bowen also believes Adebo should return, as in a recent article...
