Official 2024 Saints Draft Discussion

The NFL made an adjustment to the compensatory pick formula for the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, which moved what was a sixth-round pick for the Cincinnati Bengals up to a third-round pick at No. 97 overall. So what’s the ripple effect for the New Orleans Saints?

Ultimately, this also moves the remaining compensatory picks behind 97 overall down one spot. The Saints began with picks at No. 167, 169, and 174, which will now all move down to 168, 170, and 175.

After this adjustment, here is what the Saints’ 2024 draft picks are looking like:

Round 1, Pick 14
Round 2, Pick 45 (via Denver Broncos)
Round 5, Pick 150
Round 5, Pick 168 (compensatory)
Round 5, Pick 170 (compensatory)
Round 5, Pick 175 (compensatory)
Round 6, Pick 190
Round 6, Pick 199 (via Philadelphia Eagles)
Round 7, Pick 239 (via Denver Broncos)

Thank God that Loomis started using this to our advantage or we'd be in pretty sad shape right about now.

I hope there's an early run on the QB's to push ours needs down closer to #14.

Explosive & has elite speed (4.33). Also had really high RAS scores.
Has pass catching (played some WR in college) experience as well.

Take a flyer at him on Day 3 (rounds 4-6).

We could really use some elite, speed at the position.

Yep.

Or maybe they go with Verse (Fl St) or possibly Lata (UCLA).

If Dallas does indeed end up with Atlanta, I hope he sucks

My worst nightmare would have been Atlanta getting young franchise QB who can win in the playoffs without having to do a blockbuster trade that robs them of future first round picks or signing a free agent that nukes their salary cap. Perhaps JJ McCarthy is the real deal or one of the top 3 QBs slips unexpectedly like Aaron Rodgers did or a QB expected to go later is the next Mahomes in the mid 1st round. Now that can't happen. Atlanta may win the division, but I am happy the scenario where they get a ring won't happen. Maybe if they find Kirk Cousins his Daniel Hunter they will go 13-4, but I am not afraid.

DT - Byron Murphy
Texas

Very good against the run & has quickness.

Strong lower body, gets good positioning on his opponents.

Some have compared his skill set to Grady Jarrett.

2nd round grades.
