With 9 picks over 3 days, the New Orleans Saints managed to fill several positions of need with their 2025 NFL Draft class.

Round 1, Pick 9: Kelvin Banks Jr., T, Texas

Round 2. Pick 40: Tyler Shough, QB, Louisville

It seems like forever ago, and in a lot of ways it was, but it was 2.5 years ago that the New Orleans Saints traded defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson. That trade finalizes during the 2025 NFL Draft, believe it or not, so we can finally wrap a bow on it.

The draft orders for all of those picks were eventually decided, so here are where they all settled:

New Orleans included the 2023 fifth-round pick to the Chicago Bears as part of a package to move up and select guard Nick Saldiveri. Saldiveri has struggled to find playing time, logging just 362 offensive snaps through his first two...

Throughout time, NFL teams have made massive mistakes or impeccable moves throughout the draft, but this matters the most in the first round, and this year was no different.

The Jacksonville Jaguars had an opportunity lined up to give up their first this year (#5), a second (#36), a fourth (#126), and a 2026 first rounder for the Cleveland Browns’ first (#2), a fourth (#104), and a sixth (#200). The reason the Jags made this trade was to select star...
