Saints met with top QB prospect Cam Ward [Schefter: CLE, NYG or maybe Saints have to make an offer compelling enough for #1 pick]

This draft is deep at OL & EDGE, especially on Day 2 & early Day 3. On one of the NOF pods, Nick threw out a an idea that it would cost two 1s & two 3s, & i think Olave. If that were the case, i can see a scenario where we trade up to get Ward, & us still having enough draft capitol to lock down a starting level OL &/or EDGE. Id be cool w/that to land a potential franchise QB.

Where there's smoke there's fire. The Saints are likely more motivated by the open quarel w/ Carr. Everything we've heard about him not wanting to take a paycut or being open to trade is coming from his dissatisfaction...not the Saints. They haven't said a word to the public, but I'm sure deep down they know a disgruntled player going into the Season isn't how you want to get 2025 kicked off.
