The Saints came into the offseason with a talented trio of wideouts in Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and A.T. Perry. However, they had no other depth at depth at the position. Even with the free-agent additions of Cedrick Wilson and Equanimeous St. Brown, most thought the Saints would draft a receiver after the unceremonious split with Michael Thomas.
New Orleans did indeed select a wideout, but not until midway through Day 3 of the draft. That pick was former Louisiana Tech Bulldog and Pitt Panthers WR Jerrod ''Bub'' Means at the 35th choice in the fifth round and 170th overall selection.
Here's a closer look at what the newest New Orleans Saints wideout brings to the table.
Bub Means, WR - Pitt
Bub Means began his collegiate career at Tennessee but transferred after redshirting in 2019. After sitting out the 2020 campaign at Louisiana Tech, he'd catch 22 passes for 430 yards and two touchdowns for the Bulldogs in 2021 before transferring again. ...

The New Orleans Saints are signing a one-year deal with former Detroit Lions defensive back Will Harris.
Given his versatility in the defensive backfield, Harris adds an interesting element to the Saints’ secondary. He was drafted out of Boston College as a safety but has been used as both a safety and corner in Detroit. He was also a valued member of multiple Lions’ special teams units.
Harris has five years of NFL experience. Last season, Harris appeared in all 17 games for the Lions but only recorded 18 total tackles and one interception. However, in 2022, Harris recorded 57 total...

Saints sign UDFA LB Isaiah Stalbird
The New Orleans Saints have recently signed South Dakota State linebacker Isaiah Stalbird as an un-drafted free agent. He’s one of 15 UDFA’s the Saints have signed.

3 Saints ranked among ESPN's 100 best picks in 2024 NFL draft
The New Orleans Saints made some popular picks in the 2024 draft. ESPN ranked three of them among this year’s 100 best selections, starting with first-round right tackle Taliese Fuaga. Here’s why ESPN’s Matt Miller argues Fuaga was the 24th-best pick out of the 257 selections in this year’s draft:
But they didn’t stop there. The Saints also nailed their second-round choice, which was a trade up four spots to select cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry. Miller ranked that pick at 77th in his top 100, writing:

Fans should expect a delay in Saints signing Kool-Aid McKinstry
Look ahead a few months and we can guess what New Orleans Saints fans will be asking: why hasn’t Kool-Aid McKinstry signed his contract?

Most of the Saints draft class now signs their deals after rookie minicamp in May. But there’s one area that has turned into a battlefield: contracts for second round picks.
