The New Orleans Saints have a busy linebacker room with Demario Davis leading the way, and Jaylan Ford adds a special and invaluable element of the game to the position.

A premier communicator, Ford could go a long way in his development over time. But expe...

The New Orleans Saints have officially begun their process of finding their QB of the future by drafting Spencer Rattler in the 2024 NFL Draft. Can the South Carolina quarterback prove his growth and maturity in time to become the hair apparent to Derek Carr?

While Spencer Rattler didn't feel like the right quarterback for the New Orleans Saints in the 2024 NFL Draft, the selection of a late passer is incredibly smart. The South Carolina passer has a ton of qualities the Saints clearly like including his ability to get through progressions, manage adversity, keep a calm head and use his athleticism to make plays. Entering New Orleans behind Derek Carr, Rattler has a chance to develop in...
