Best remaining players for the Saints on Day 2 of 2022 NFL draft
We have gotten through the first round of the 2022 NFL draft and while a lot of the top prospects are gone, but there are certainly some big names left from our top-100 big board. After some major reaches by other teams, there is a lot to like from the remaining players available for the New Orleans Saints. Sure, the Saints don’t have much to work with after trading up in the first round (their only pick on Friday is currently scheduled at No. 49 overall), but this is where they have made most of their trades, and more movement could be possible. Here are the names fans should watch for in the second and third rounds:
