Where do the Saints want to improve ahead of the 2020 NFL Draft?
By John Sigler | Saints Wire
What will the New Orleans Saints do in the 2020 NFL Draft? Few teams have been less predictable in recent years, thanks to the team’s strategy to plug roster holes through free agency, allowing them to maximize the talent available in each rookie class. That’s not something Saints coach Sean Payton expects to change soon, owing to a solid haul of veteran free agents and a number of important re-signings up and down the depth chart.
“Well, look, we’re going to be smart with the draft relative to the grades and paying attention to our board,” Payton said, emphasizing the team’s plan to draft the best players available, rather than force a pick at a position of need.
The Saints no longer have a huge vacancy at wide receiver, having paired Emmanuel Sanders up with Michael Thomas. They’ve arguably upgraded the secondary by bringing back Malcolm Jenkins, extending their contract with Janoris Jenkins, and retaining critical depth with P.J. Williams. Up front, surprising re-signings of David Onyemata and Andrus Peat have kept one of the NFL’s better defensive and offensive lines intact.

The New Orleans Saints are hiring the University of Montana offensive analyst Scott Linehan, per a report by Nick Underhill.

Saints to hire former Steelers DB coach Grady Brown
The New Orleans Saints have hired former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive backs coach Grady Brown, according to Matt Zenitz of 247sports. His title with the team is still to be determined. Brown had interviewed for the Atlanta Falcons’ vacant defensive coordinator position this offseason before they ultimately chose former New York Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich.
It became apparent that Brown would not be returning to the Steelers when they announced the hiring of Gerald Alexander as their new DB coach. During Brown’s four-year stint, Pittsburgh posted a 38-29-1 record while the...

Dont’e Thornton, a wide receiver out of Tennessee, had an impressive day at the NFL Combine and because of his performance, I think the New Orleans Saints should think about drafting him this April.
Standing at 6’5’’, his 40-yard dash of 4.30 stands out. And according to NFL Draft Files, this speed is nothing new. Thornton also had a vertical jump of 33” and a broad jump of 10’6’’, with a relative athletic score of 9.80.
In 2024, his best season of college football, Thornton had 26 receptions for 662 yards and six touchdowns. His best game was against Oklahoma, where he had two...

Two NFL Draft prospects that had their stock affected by Combine measurements
Most of the outside focus of the NFL Combine is on the 40-yard dash to see who runs the fastest. For some positions, this drill is essential. For others, different drills are a focus of many scouts. One aspect of the Combine is important no matter what: The measurements. Every prospect participating in the combine gets their height, weight, arm length, hand size, and wing span measured. Having the ideal measurements is something teams value higher than most categories, and it can affect draft stock if a prospect has surprising or disappointing measurements. It happens every year, and...
