We're going to pay close attention to all of the undrafted rookies for the Saints, but here's some to really hone in on.

By John Hendrix - Saints News Network | SI

A three-day Saints rookie minicamp kicks off on Friday, and we'll get our first look at this year's class soon. The team recently announced the signing of first-round pick Taliese Fuaga and five other picks, and now there's only one who is unsigned. While we're eager to see the drafted class, we can't overlook the undrafted rookies. We had a preview for them recently, and now here's some of the ones we are most eager to see in action over the next couple of months.

Saints Undrafted Rookies to Watch:

Kyler Baugh, Minnesota


The Saints have a need on the interior after losing Malcolm Roach, and we presume Khristian Boyd would be the top favorite. However, keep an eye on Kyler Baugh. He is someone who could challenge for a spot, with the practice squad being the bare minimum. He has some real upside as a pass-rusher and is much quicker for a defensive lineman than you would think. He's one I'm excited to watch throughout the process. ...

What to watch for: Saints Rookie Minicamp

It’s time to get back on the football field.

Rookie minicamp is this weekend throughout the NFL and for the New Orleans Saints, it’s an opportunity to see your draft picks and UDFAs in action.

Here’s a few points to keep an eye on for the weekend:

There’s going to be a ton of pressure on the offensive line prospect that the Saints drafted 14th overall and now gave a fully guaranteed deal before he steps foot on the field. It appears that Ryan Ramcyzk will be good to go, but Fuaga will have to step in at left tackle while Trevor Penning could move inside to left guard. So, it’ll be...

With the start of the New Orleans Saints 2024 minicamp just about a month away, we’re going to do an early projection of what the roster could potentially look like come week one. It is very likely that the team will be adding players here and there before the start of the season, but I believe this provides a good idea on where this team stands with the personnel they have at the moment.

Let’s get to it.

Quarterback (3): Derek Carr, Jake Haener, Spencer Rattler

Running Back (4): Alvin Kamara, Jamaal Williams, Kendre Miller, Zander Horvath

Wide Receiver (6): Chris Olave, Rashid...

Saints QB Spencer Rattler invited to NFLPA Rookie Premiere

Rookie New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler is one of 40 NFL rookies that has been invited to 2024 NFLPA Rookie Premiere. The event will take place in Los Angeles from May 16-19.

The Rookie Premiere, according to Sportskeeda, is a program organized by the NFLPA to acquire corporate brands and help league sponsors get to know some of the most marketable draft picks. The event allows NFL partners “unparalleled access” to up-and-coming stars.

On a surface level, there are multiple Saints’ draft picks that might be more deserving than Rattler; however, the event invites appear to...

Saints sign first round pick, massive offensive tackle whose job it is to protect Derek Carr

The New Orleans Saints have signed their first-round draft choice, tackle Taliese Fuaga, to a four-year contract.

The club announced the agreement on Thursday, a day before the opening of the Saints' three-day rookie camp.

The 6-foot-6, 324-pound Fuaga's prospects for playing immediately — if not starting — are high. Andrus Peat, who played both guard and tackle last season, left in free agency for Las Vegas. Meanwhile, James Hurst, who also played guard and tackle, retired.

Adding to the Saints' precarious situation up front is the fact that starting right tackle Ryan Ramczyk had...

Former Saints tight end Clay Harbor reflects on his rookie minicamp experience

The New Orleans Saints kick off their three-day rookie minicamp on Friday, and it’s an important day for a lot of players. Not just the draft picks and rookie free agents wearing their new helmets and team colors for the first time, but for many tryout players for whom this might be their last opportunity in the NFL. It’s vital that they make a strong impression in hopes of catching on with the Saints for training camp.

That’s what Clay Harbor experienced back in 2017, his final year in the NFL. The former Saints tight end tried out at rookie minicamp that year after playing for four...

More free agents the New Orleans Saints could target

Before the draft, I wrote that the New Orleans Saints could target free agents Justin Simmons, Dalton Risner, and Mekhi Becton. Besides Becton, who was already picked up, the Saints could still target these players, but more are still available that would help.

The last piece to the Saints defensive back room is one more safety. Justin Simmons is the number one option, but Kearse would be a great second choice if that does not happen. The former Dallas Cowboys safety was a reluctant cut this offseason. The team had a lot of big contracts, and their safety room was already very full. This...

All of the players invited to try out at Saints rookie minicamp

Friday brings a big opportunity for a lot of players — the New Orleans Saints will join half the NFL in starting their rookie minicamp, giving dozens of first-year pros and journeymen free agents a chance to try out and earn a spot on the training camp roster. While this these three days of practices are emphasized on the Saints’ draft picks and rookie free agent signings, there will also be some veteran free agents trying out in hopes of continuing their careers.

And we should expect the Saints to sign a couple of players afterwards. They always find two or three players in these tryouts who stick around for training camp, and occasionally one of them makes the practice squad or even the 53-man roster when the season starts. It’s a tough path to take to the NFL, and they’ll all be working hard to go the distance.

We’ll keep an eye out for the Saints announcing their final list of rookie camp tryouts, but for now here are all of the names that have been reported:

Saints have signed all but one of their rookie draft picks

Streamlining rookie contract negotiations is one bright side to the NFL’s modern collective bargaining agreements, at least from the team’s perspective. Because rookie deals are tied to draft slots and the salary cap, the New Orleans Saints don’t have to spend all summer haggling with each of their new players’ agents before agreeing to terms. As a result of that, six of their seven draft picks are going into rookie minicamp on Friday having put pens to paper.

There’s just one rookie left to sign:

The New Orleans Saints started rookie minicamp strong as they signed their first round draft pick to a fully guaranteed deal.

The Black and Gold also signed deals with Bub Means, Spencer Rattler, Jaylan Ford, Khristian Boyd, and Josiah Ezirim. The only rookie left to sign is Kool-Aid McKinstry.

If nothing else, drafting Rattler has caused a stir in the headlines throughout the league. But closer to home, is there a debate about who should be the starter in 2024?

The New Orleans Saints have announced that they have signed six of their seven 2024 NFL Draft picks. Taliese Fuaga, Bub Means, Spencer Rattler, Jaylan Ford, Khristian Boyd and Josiah Ezirim have all signed 4-year deals with the team. The news come just ahead of rookie minicamp which starts tomorrow. The only remaining unsigned draft pick is Kool-Aid McKinstry but that should not worry anyone as it usually takes a little longer for second-round pick deals to come together and McKinstry is already at the Saints facility.
