Saints draft picks in 2024, 2025, and beyond: Full list
With the 2023 season officially over, it’s offseason time for the NFL world. One of the biggest moments of NFL offseasons is the NFL Draft. The 2024 NFL Draft will be a big one for the New Orleans Saints, because it will be the team’s best opportunity to upgrade the roster considering their cap situation.
Once the 2024 salary cap is officially announced, the Saints will be around $80 million over the cap. That leaves New Orleans little room to make multiple big signings in free agency. Instead, the Saints will have to rely on a strong draft class getting them over the hump.
Fortunately, New Orleans has a first-round pick in the 2024 Draft, as well as several other picks throughout the other rounds. In fact, the Saints are in possession of a lot of their picks for the upcoming NFL Drafts. Let’s take a look at all of the picks New Orleans owns in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 NFL Drafts.

New Orleans only has two picks in the first four rounds, but fortunately, those picks are in the first two rounds. With the team’s first pick coming at No. 14, the Saints will be in position to address a position of need with a talented prospect that could be a day one starter. The bulk of the rest of the picks are in the fifth round, thanks to compensatory picks.

New Orleans currently has its automatic pick in every round except the seventh. That pick was packaged with Chauncey Gardner-Johnson when he was sent to the Philadelphia Eagles. It’s possible that these picks could be moved over the next year. The nos for these picks will be decided by the 2024 season.
Saints 2026 Draft Picks

1 | TBD | — |

New Orleans is currently in possession of its automatic pick in all seven rounds. The team hasn't traded any of its picks or acquired any. With two years until the 2026 NFL Draft, that will probably change.
