Nick Saldiveri is lost for the 2026 season.

Season ending PUP SMH

Injury settlement and cut incoming soon. IMO

[Looks questioningly in the direction of Kendre Miller]

The Saints have had some terrible drafts, but that one takes the cake.

The only reason why it might not be the worst draft in Saints history is because Bresee is still on the roster and can at least rush the passer here and there, even if he can't do anything else well

OTC already shows his contract was terminated. Was he cut, then recently resigned and ended back on PUP?

I'd argue 2014 might be worse

Brandin Cooks
Stanley Jean-Baptiste
Khairi Fortt
Vinnie Sunseri
Ronald Powell
Tavon Rooks

Yes, Cooks was better than Bresee has been. However, the rest of that group were only active for a COMBINED 37 games in their entire NFL careers. None of that group played more than a single season for the Saints (at least on the active roster). Guys like Miller and Howden have at least made some contributions, however small.

Hasn't been officially announced as cut, but OTC is likely getting out ahead of it knowing there's no way he can stick on this roster not being able to stay healthy.

Its sucks that we couldn't get to see him at full potential but good riddance.

Kendre is a missed practice away from being gone.

Man he suffered that 2024 knee early in TC. to be still recovering to where the team felt it best to just cut bait makes me wonder if it was another case of the player not following rehab and/or seeking his own outside medical treatment that was contrary to the team Dr.s.

Just shows you what I know, but I was legit excited about this draft class. I still can't understand how Foskey was such a terrible player. I thought he and Perry were steals.

Foskey in the 2nd and Haener in the 4 let alone trading up to get him were both dumb picks. The rest were solid. Can't blame Kendre & Saldiveri, poor fellas just have had horrible injury luck.

I actually like Jordan Howden, Not ever one can develop into a solid starter much less star but yo need solid rotational guys that can stand out on special teams.

IMO He's a solid 5th rounder.

Bresee I really don't have a problem with at 29th, but hind sight Would rather have had OLB Nolan Smith, CB Joey Porter Jr or TE Sam LaPorta.

Everyone busts on the Saints for that Foskey pick but I remember scratching my head when the Chiefs picked DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah witjh the last pick in the 1st rd. I was like, Who? At least they got 3 sacks out of him.

Foskey has a .5 sack in his career.

Are we able to say he's never gotten A SACK in the NFL?

PFR says he doesn't even have 1/2 a sack.

29 combined tackles 1 PD and 1 QB hit.

In 35 games.

Would love to see the transcript of the war room conversations right before drafting him.

The irony is that we went away from built like Tarzan, plays like Jane (payton turner).

Only to just fine built like Jane plays like Jane
