NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - The NFL Draft is a little over two weeks away in Pittsburgh. The New Orleans Saints will be quite busy April 23-25 with eight picks.
On opening night, the Saints will draft No. 8 overall. Last year in the first round, the Black and Gold picked left tackle Kelvin Banks, Jr. at No. 9 overall.
The Saints could go offense at No. 8 overall and select Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate or Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love. On defense, Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles or Miami EDGE Ruben Bain, Jr could be possible options.
It all, of course, depends on who falls to New Orleans at that spot.
Here’s the pick positions for New Orleans in the 2026 NFL Draft:
Round 1: 8th
Round 2: 42nd
Round 3: 73rd
Round 4: 132nd and 136th
Round 5: 150th and 172nd
Round 6: 190th
