Historically speaking, the New Orleans Saints are one of the most trade-heavy teams in the NFL, so why should a mock draft be any different? After once again digging their way out of salary cap hell, New Orleans needs to build through the draft if they want to make their first playoff appearance of the post-Drew Brees Era. With Dennis Allen’s job on the line, the Saints must do everything in their power to create the best unit possible for 2024. Note that this Saints mock draft was performed using the Pro Football Focus Mock Draft simulator. If the player was on the board when New Orleans was on the clock, they were fair game. Also, all trades had to be naturally approved by the machine’s algorithm – the “force trade” button was never used.
