The New Orleans Saints are gearing up for the NFL Scouting Combine, aiming to build on their successful 2025 draft. With veteran defenders Cameron Jordan and Demario Davis returning, and the team signing a starting-caliber guard and extending Chris Olave's contract, the Saints are in a strong position. However, they must also adapt to the loss of cornerback Alontae Taylor. This pre-Combine mock draft explores potential moves, considering the team's needs and available talent. But here's where it gets controversial... Who will the Saints select in the first round? While some analysts predict a quarterback or an edge rusher, others argue for a wide receiver to complement Olave. And this is the part most people miss... The Saints' strategy in the second round could be a game-changer. With the team's need for a disruptive cornerback, the selection of Keionte Scott could be a bold move. Scott's energetic and disruptive style could be a perfect fit for the Saints' defense. And this is the part most people miss... The draft's later rounds offer opportunities to add depth and versatility. The selection of Domonique Orange in the fourth round could bolster the Saints' run defense, while Nadame Tucker in the fourth round provides a disruptive edge rusher. Addressing guard in free agency is crucial, and the addition of Jaeden Roberts in the fifth round offers a talented player to develop. But here's where it gets controversial... The Saints' final picks could be a strategic move to double up at wide receiver. Cyrus Allen, a New Orleans native, could be a perfect fit to join Lemon in the wide receiver corps. However, some may argue that the team should focus on other positions, like offensive line or defensive back, to address immediate needs.
