Typically, it’s all about football around the Brees household. That’s what you’d expect when the man of the house is one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history.

But as Drew Brees found out last week, football is apparently starting to lose a little ground to fútbol.

A trip to the barbershop last week proved it.

“My son went to get a haircut a couple days ago and he told the lady, ‘I want it to look like Cristiano Ronaldo,’ ” Brees said. “So we have Cristiano Ronaldo running around the house right now. One of them wants to be (Lionel) Messi and one wants to be somebody else. So we have the World Cup well-represented in our house right now.”

So expect Brees, as well as some of his teammates in the New Orleans Saints locker room, to tune in Thursday when soccer’s Super Bowl — the World Cup — begins. ...

According to a report by Ian Rapoport, the New Orleans Saints are a team that could be in the market for a quarterback in this year's NFL Draft.

Probably reading the writing on the wall, Rapoport doesn’t believe that Derek Carr is the long-term solution at signal caller for the Saints over the next 10 years. Aside from potential cap implications, it’s pointed out that the restructuring of Carr’s contract affords the Saints the ability to not go into the draft absolutely NEEDING to get a QB or even a QB with a particular draft pick.

UCLA Linebacker Carson Schwesinger met with the Saints at UCLA Pro Day

There are some positional needs on the New Orleans Saints roster that are much more glaring than others. Still, getting a long-term answer before an issue becomes an issue is a good way to build a roster in the NFL. The Saints did this last year by selecting CB Kool-Aid McKinstry in the second round of the NFL Draft. In 2025, New Orleans can do this again, but with the linebacker group. One of the top 2nd round options is UCLA LB Carson Schwesinger, who at his pro day, met with the Saints privately, per Adam Schefter.

As I mentioned before, the Saints made a smart decision by selecting...

In this week’s CSC poll, we ask our readers what the New Orleans Saints should do in the first round of this year’s NFL Draft:

After 458 votes, staying at pick #9 won with 42% of the vote. Remaining at No. 9 of course wouldn’t cost the Saints anything, but they may miss the chance to get some of the players on the top of their draft board.

There is no real consensus on who the Saints may draft at #9, as players mocked to them range from edge rusher Shemar Stewart of Texas A&M to tight end Tyler Warren of Penn State. However, if they move up, they may get a chance to draft someone like...

ESPN’s draft day predictor is up and according to their simulation, Will Johnson is the expected pick for the New Orleans Saints at the ninth spot.

The Michigan cornerback is arguably the best cornerback in the NFL Draft. Though, Johnson considers himself to be a cut above the rest.

“A lot of respect to him (Travis Hunter); he won the Heisman; he’s done a lot of great things, but I know I’m the best cornerback in the draft.” Will Johnson said on PFT Live at the scouting combine.

Throughout his college career, he has received numerous honors, including being named defensive MVP of the...

The New Orleans Saints have a multitude of options at pick 9 in the NFL Draft. Almost every position can be upgraded on the roster, but the Saints should fix their offensive and defensive lines first if they want any success in 2025 and beyond. This is something head coach Kellen Moore has stated multiple times, and there are some great options to improve the lines. One of these prospects is Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham, who is visiting with the Saints this week, per Jeremy Fowler.

Graham is the top defensive tackle in the 2025 class, and if he is somehow available at pick 9...
