Electric 2026 draft prospect might force Saints to make an irrational decision

The New Orleans Saints' late-season turnaround has fans dreaming about what could be in 2026, but this roster still has plenty of needs to address before reaching contender status. With aging talent on defense and limited pass-catching options, general manager Mickey Loomis has some work to do in the offseason.

The options available in free agency are going to be sparse, so the Saints will need to look to the draft for their next building blocks. As they drift away from the top ten, it becomes crucial to find value in the first round. In all likelihood, they'll spend that pick on a "premium" position.
