Make no mistake, Taysom Hill has to feel pretty good going into the 2018 season. He will undoubtedly have to beat out Tom Savage to win the backup job. Also, with the acquisition of J.T. Barrett, it’s likely to be a battle for that backup position. Nevertheless, Hill has the coaches’ eyes and some experience being with the team for a solid year.

The fact that the Saints didn’t select a quarterback, has to instill some confidence in Hill. Surely, Who Dat Nation was salivating in round one, when the Saints traded up to move to the 14th overall pick. The thought was that the Saints were going to pick a quarterback. That’s the usual scenario when a team moves up and gives up a couple of draft picks.

The New Orleans Saints won’t be major players in free agency due to their cap issues, so the draft will be a big focus this offseason.

With the Saints’ first pick in the draft, they can go in many different directions. The roster needs talent and improvements, so going with the best available player is the best decision at 9. For this mock draft, that prospect is wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan out of Arizona...

If you ask the Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski, the New Orleans Saints and Ashton Jeanty are candidates for a perfect marriage. Jeanty and the Saints have been connected because of Kellen Moore’s Boise State ties, but Sobleski stayed away from that low-hanging fruit to explain why Jeanty could fit the Saints so well.

Taliese Fuaga and Trevor Penning impacted Sobleski’s decision as well. He sees a world where putting Jeanty behind “two young, run-blocking tone-setters at offensive tackle” could be turn Jeanty into the “focal point” for the Saints offense for the future.

The 2025 offseason has begun, however, free agency is still a little while away as teams wrap up their early processes before working on new signings.

It’s no secret that the New Orleans Saints have not been the most fun team to watch in recent years, but one player still carries an extreme entertainment factor when he is on the field.

Undrafted wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is a big play waiting to happen. Over his first three seasons, he has 94 catches for 1,556 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also has a rushing touchdown and two punt return scores.

His only real issue right now is his availability. He has missed team in each season and only played six games last year. If he can stay healthy, he is one of the most underrated players in...

B/R believes Saints would set up this rookie QB to fail

Cam Ward has better chance of being the first overall pick than falling to the New Orleans Saints at ninth overall. If that did happen, Bleacher Report’s scouting department sees that as the worst case scenario for Ward.

They see “the worst thing for a quarterback of Ward’s ilk is to find himself on a squad without quality surrounding talent.” The scouting department clearly thinks that description best fits New Orleans.

Most quarterbacks drafted in the top-10 will step into unfavorable situations. The Saints would surround Ward with a couple of weapons in Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and...

The Caesars Superdome used to be a place opposing teams dreaded to visit. The fast-paced New Orleans Saints offense was tough to slow down on their turf in front of their loud fans and under their bright lights. Unfortunately, things aren’t what they used to be.

Including the playoffs, the Saints won 8 home games in a row in 2017 and 7 consecutive in 2018. They were undefeated at home in 2012, winning all 9 games at the Caesars Superdome (again, including the playoffs). That dominance built a perception that the Superdome crowd was too much for visiting teams to handle — too loud, too...

In his introductory press conference, New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore stated that he will be calling plays. This takes some importance out of the OC search, but getting the correct hire will still be extremely important for the team. The search came down to Philadelphia Eagles RB coach/assistant head coach Jemal Singleton, Miami Dolphins WR coach Robert Prince, and Eagles QB coach Doug Nussmeier. Even before the Saints hired their head coach, it was believed that if Kellen Moore were the guy, Nussmeier would be the favorite for OC.

Today, per Nick Underhill, the Saints have...
