  20.  &lt;p&gt;What could have been???&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="nGfQC3"&gt;The &lt;a href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/"&gt;Dallas Cowboys&lt;/a&gt; landed their backup quarterback in Joe Milton III from the &lt;a href="https://www.patspulpit.com/"&gt;New England Patriots&lt;/a&gt;.  So, why am I discussing this on a &lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/"&gt;New Orleans Saints&lt;/a&gt; site?  Well for the low cost of a fifth-round pick, Dallas was able to pick up Milton and a seventh-rounder.&lt;/p&gt;

  23. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Trade: New England is sending QB Joe Milton to the Dallas Cowboys, sources tell ESPN. With Cooper Rush going to Baltimore, Dallas now has a new backup for Dak Prescott. &lt;a href="https://t.co/AIVVuvsel2"&gt;pic.twitter.com/AIVVuvsel2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1907798123717542182?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;April 3, 2025&lt;/a&gt;

  27. &lt;/div&gt;
  28. &lt;p id="w2bWyi"&gt;As a team that is looking at putting together a QB room that should produce someone to be the starter long-term in New Orleans, I would have loved to see the Saints take a shot at someone with the talent that Joe Milton III has shown.&lt;/p&gt;
  29. &lt;p id="uteLfg"&gt;Milton had one start for the Patriots this year, albeit in the final week of the season against Buffalo, he threw for 241 yards and a TD.  Given the level of competition in a final week against a team that had nothing to gain, there is definitely a small sample size of his NFL prowess but at Tennessee this is a guy that threw for 2813 in his senior year with 20 touchdowns and 5 interceptions while rushing for 299 yards and 7 touchdowns.&lt;/p&gt;
  30. &lt;p id="ogbqe0"&gt;Oh yeah, also there is this:&lt;/p&gt;
  31. &lt;div id="QtsbUN"&gt;
  32. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true" align="center"&gt;
  33. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Joe Milton threw this 80 yards. That’s absolutely ridiculous. And then he casually added a backflip. ( : Steve Clarkson/Instagram) &lt;a href="https://t.co/mRXHyrM8EU"&gt;pic.twitter.com/mRXHyrM8EU&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— zach ragan (@zachTNT) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/zachTNT/status/1662587463838183428?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;May 27, 2023&lt;/a&gt;
  34. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  35. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  36.  
  37. &lt;/div&gt;
  38. &lt;p id="XIq3sb"&gt;All this to say, is Joe Milton (who is in his second year and only has a cap hit of $1,005,829) any worse an option as a new addition than any later round pick this year?  We know he can play in the NFL and he’s still under a team friendly deal for several more years.  For a team that really needs to find a diamond in the rough, or sacrifice all future draft picks to move up, feels like this could have been a great opportunity to add depth to the QB room, admittedly without knowing whether they threw their hat in the ring and just couldn’t get it done.&lt;/p&gt;

  59.  &lt;p&gt;Emmanwori could be a great option for the Saints. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="9zZd1p"&gt;Throughout free agency, the &lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/"&gt;New Orleans Saints&lt;/a&gt; have made it known that they will try and compete in the 2025 season. One of these moves was signing former &lt;a href="https://www.arrowheadpride.com"&gt;Kansas City Chiefs&lt;/a&gt; safety Justin Reid, which was a fantastic deal. Reid will be a top piece of this defense, and although the safety room looks much better, more work still needs to be done. Tyrann Mathieu’s time in the NFL is almost up, and Jordan Howden has been up and down since being drafted by New Orleans. The future safety room is a bit of a question mark, so investing in this area through the draft makes sense. This could happen in any round, but one of the top safeties in the draft, Nick Emmanwori, can be an excellent option for the Saints, and he met with the team Thursday, per Nick Underhill.&lt;/p&gt;
  60. &lt;div id="VYWnFQ"&gt;
  61. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true" align="center"&gt;
  62. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Nick Emmanwori visited the Saints on Thursday, according to a source.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The South Carolina safety is a high-upside player with size (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) and athleticism (4.39 40-yard dash) that makes him an intriguing option in the draft. &lt;a href="https://t.co/fg9bJnmoel"&gt;pic.twitter.com/fg9bJnmoel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Nick Underhill (@nick_underhill) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/nick_underhill/status/1907881053768778170?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;April 3, 2025&lt;/a&gt;
  63. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  64. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  65.  
  66. &lt;/div&gt;
  67. &lt;p id="fy8MoW"&gt;Athleticism and draft selections have gone hand in hand in regard to the Saints draft plan over the years. If the team wants to continue going in this direction, Emmanwori might be the perfect prospect. After &lt;a href="https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-combine"&gt;NFL Combine&lt;/a&gt; testing, the South Carolina safety had a perfect 10.0 RAS score, which as we know, the Saints have valued in the past. He is set to go somewhere at the end of the first, but if New Orleans trades back from 9 or he drops to 40, selecting the Nick Emmanwori could be a top option. &lt;/p&gt;

  144.  &lt;p&gt;New Orleans long-term QB uncertainty looms large for the 2025 Draft.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="bYw7c1"&gt;According to a report by Ian Rapoport, the &lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/"&gt;New Orleans Saints&lt;/a&gt; are a team that could be in the market for a quarterback in this year's &lt;a href="https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-draft"&gt;NFL Draft&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  145. &lt;div id="VUfmxr"&gt;
  146. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true" align="center"&gt;
  147. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;From The Insiders on &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/nflnetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@NFLNetwork&lt;/a&gt;: The &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Saints?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#Saints&lt;/a&gt; are among the team's that could select a QB early in the NFL Draft. &lt;a href="https://t.co/topAA9xmdM"&gt;pic.twitter.com/topAA9xmdM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1907790720171205051?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;April 3, 2025&lt;/a&gt;
  148. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  149. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  150.  
  151. &lt;/div&gt;
  152. &lt;p id="jQNg7H"&gt;Probably reading the writing on the wall, Rapoport doesn’t believe that Derek Carr is the long-term solution at signal caller for the Saints over the next 10 years.  Aside from potential cap implications, it’s pointed out that the restructuring of Carr’s contract affords the Saints the ability to not go into the draft absolutely NEEDING to get a QB or even a QB with a particular draft pick.&lt;/p&gt;
  153. &lt;p id="NchdXU"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/2025/4/2/24399104/saints-host-texas-qb-quinn-ewers-on-top-30-visit"&gt;Saints host Texas QB Quinn Ewers on Top-30 Visit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  154. &lt;p id="QlQDTs"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/2025/4/1/24398413/new-report-suggests-the-saints-may-be-in-for-jaxson-dart"&gt;New report suggests the Saints may be in for Jaxson Dart&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  155. &lt;p id="QDVNWr"&gt;As has been covered on this site, the Saints are doing their due diligence on this year’s quarterback class, with meetings and pro-day visits to most anyone projected to get drafted this year that can throw the ball.&lt;/p&gt;
  156. &lt;p id="k2lWCy"&gt;As a team that doesn’t need to use a pick on this position, they are afforded the luxury that if someone drops down to the 9th pick, they’re ready to scoop them up, or as Rapoport points out, they could even trade back into the back end of the first round if someone has really wowed them and a deal is there to be made.&lt;/p&gt;
  157. &lt;p id="1ZvD2m"&gt;Rapoport also mentioned on his podcast yesterday that there is a possibility of Shedeur Sanders potentially making his way down to the Saints at No. 9.&lt;/p&gt;

  182. &lt;p id="b816hv"&gt;Phase Three consists of the final four weeks of the program. Teams may conduct a total of 10 days of organized team practice activity, or “OTAs”. No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are permitted. &lt;/p&gt;
  183. &lt;p id="eZMqfW"&gt;It is unknown at this time if any minicamp practices will be open to fans, but Saints head coach Kellen Moore said earlier this week that training camp would be held in Metairie this year. Last season, the Saints moved camp to Irvine, CA, due to oncoming renovations to their practice facility. &lt;/p&gt;

  206.  &lt;p&gt;42% of voters said...&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="Ek7BqE"&gt;In this week’s CSC poll, we ask our readers what the &lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/"&gt;New Orleans Saints&lt;/a&gt; should do in the first round of this year’s &lt;a href="https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-draft"&gt;NFL Draft&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

  209. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;⚜️WEEKLY POLL QUESTION⚜️&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What do you want the &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Saints?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#Saints&lt;/a&gt; to do in the first round of the &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NFLDraft?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#NFLDraft&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/p&gt;— Canal St. Chronicles (@SaintsCSC) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/SaintsCSC/status/1907063460535361970?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;April 1, 2025&lt;/a&gt;

  212.  
  213. &lt;/div&gt;
  214. &lt;p id="lzbrpT"&gt;After 458 votes, staying at pick #9 won with 42% of the vote.  Remaining at No. 9 of course wouldn’t cost the Saints anything, but they may miss the chance to get some of the players on the top of their draft board.&lt;/p&gt;
  215. &lt;p id="Q1El0Y"&gt;There is no real consensus on who the Saints may draft at #9, as players mocked to them range from edge rusher Shemar Stewart of &lt;a href="https://www.goodbullhunting.com"&gt;Texas A&amp;amp;M&lt;/a&gt; to tight end Tyler Warren of Penn State.  However, if they move up, they may get a chance to draft someone like defensive tackle Mason Graham or even Travis Hunter.  Moving up this far would be a risk given the some of the holes the Saints still need to fill on the roster. So, giving up a haul of draft picks to move up a few spots may not be the best plan.&lt;/p&gt;
  216. &lt;p id="ZA1dnn"&gt;Staying at #9 would be the safest option, but if the Saints do not pick the right player, they would miss out on another chance at a star, or the opportunity to acquire additional draft capital by moving down which is something I think that they really cannot afford to do with the needs on their roster. &lt;/p&gt;

  235.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  236.  
  237.  &lt;p&gt;An underrated need for this roster.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="YNFvh1"&gt;There are some positional needs on the &lt;a href="https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/"&gt;New Orleans Saints&lt;/a&gt; roster that are much more glaring than others. Still, getting a long-term answer before an issue becomes an issue is a good way to build a roster in the NFL. The Saints did this last year by selecting CB Kool-Aid McKinstry in the second round of the &lt;a href="https://www.sbnation.com/nfl-draft"&gt;NFL Draft&lt;/a&gt;. In 2025, New Orleans can do this again, but with the linebacker group. One of the top 2nd round options is UCLA LB Carson Schwesinger, who at his pro day, met with the Saints privately, per Adam Schefter.&lt;/p&gt;
  238. &lt;div id="bbWYui"&gt;
  239. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-dnt="true" align="center"&gt;
  240. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;UCLA LB Carson Schwesinger had 30 teams — including LB coaches from Dallas, the Chargers, Giants, Saints and Broncos — in attendance for his private pro day today in Los Angeles. He met privately with the LB coaches for Dallas, the Giants and Saints. He did position drills,…&lt;/p&gt;— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1907475735742165159?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;April 2, 2025&lt;/a&gt;
  241. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  242. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  243.  
  244. &lt;/div&gt;
  245. &lt;p id="VWvAF2"&gt;As I mentioned before, the Saints made a smart decision by selecting Kool-Aid in the second-round last draft. Cornerback was arguably the strength of the roster, but since then, Paulson Adebo and Marshon Lattimore went to other teams. If the Saints did not draft Kool-Aid, this position group would have been the worst in the NFL. This could easily happen with the linebacker group in two years. Demario Davis has been the star of this defense since his arrival, and although Pete Werner has been up and down, he is a really solid linebacker. Davis’ age has to be in consideration with this roster building and although the hope is he has a few more seasons in him, expecting that is not the way to go. Werner has not shown that ability to be that Demario Davis replacement when the time comes, so getting in front of that issue and making that investment now would be very smart. In the second round, Carson Schwesinger can be that investment. &lt;/p&gt;
