Mississippi Wideout Tre Harris Has Traits That The Saints Lack
Credit:
Saints NFL Draft Profile: Mississippi wide receiver Tre Harris
By Bob Rose - Athlon Sports
Much of the recent draft focus on the New Orleans Saints has been their possible need for a quarterback. With Derek Carr potentially out for the season with a shoulder issue, quarterback rumors are now fully ablaze.
The Saints have several other needs too, on both sides of the ball. One of those needs is at the wide receiver position. Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and Brandin Cooks are a trio of explosive playmakers. However, none are big-bodied pass catchers.
New Orleans has lacked a physical intermediate weapon since the decline of Michael Thomas. Moreover, the Saints got next to no production from their wideouts after Olave, Shaheed, and Bub Means were lost for the year before midseason.
Arizona playmaker Tetairoa McMillan has been linked to the Saints by some in the first round. With quarterback and other needs more pressing, it seems likely that New Orleans waits on a receiver.
If they target one in Day 2, this SEC playmaker and local product could wind up in their crosshairs. ...

The 2025 NFL Draft is only two days away, and trade rumors are rampant. Yesterday, it was reported that the New Orleans Saints were making calls to see if they could trade up from pick 40, and today, per Adam Schefter, the Cleveland Browns (No. 2) and the New York Giants (No. 3) are open to trading back from their first-round selections.
This is an interesting scenario for the Saints. Trading up from pick 9 is very risky with how much needs to be fixed with this roster, and I think New Orleans should stay away from doing this, but Travis Hunter or Abdul Carter changes things.

Hubbard’s final Saints mock draft: Kellen Moore gets his QB of the future
The New Orleans Saints are days away from (potentially) making their first top 10 pick in over a decade. They’re one of the hardest teams in the league to figure out right now. Rumors were swirling that they have their mind set on taking a quarterback, but now people are reporting it doesn’t feel like they’re going to take one at nine (which could very well be a diversion after the Patrick Mahomes fiasco).
Needless to say, Thursday is going to be a very interesting day, but so will the rest of the NFL Draft. The Saints absolutely need to nail this thing as they look to reload and give...

7-Round NFL Mock Draft: How the Saints can contend… with a new quarterback
Since Drew Brees’ retirement on March 14, 2021, the quarterbacks playing in Brees’ stead have completed 1,377 passes in 2,173 attempts (63.4%) for 14,356 yards (6.6 yards per attempt). 102 touchdowns, 50 interceptions, and a passer rating of 90.4, 17th-best in the NFL.
In those four seasons, the Saints have a combined record of 30-38, and they haven’t made the playoffs once.
So when we got the news that a shoulder injury might affect Derek Carr’s availability for the 2025 season, it begs the question: How much does (and should) that affect the team’s plans at the position? The four-year...
