News broke last week that QB Derek Carr has a shoulder injury that could cost him the 2025 season. Yet, per Times-Picayune columnist Jeff Duncan, the injury to the Saints starter will not impact the team's draft plan. "...Just from what I'm hearing, he's (Shedeur Sanders) not going to be under consideration. Now I don't know if that means no quarterbacks at 9, but I think at least in particular him."
During the latest episode of the
Saints Insider podcast, Duncan added "If you don't have a guy graded in the first round before the Carr news, it doesn't change it. You're not going to take the guy out of desperation."
At this point, with no starting QB on the roster of note, drafting a QB seems imminent. If not Sanders, then who? 54 years ago, the Saints selected an Ole Miss QB in RD1, the legendary Archie Manning.
