Sаіntѕ urged to grаb 26 TD ѕtаr WR to creаte letһаl duo wіtһ Cһrіѕ Olаve іn 2025

The New Orleans Saints need to focus on one thing this offseason: adding young talent at an affordable price. Given their dire cap space situation, the Saints likely want to stop kicking the can down the road and start getting out of bad contracts. If they want cheap talent that will produce immediately, their best bet is hoping to hit in April's draft.

The Saints currently own the No.9 overall pick with various avenues that they could take. Jordan Reid of ESPN had them select Arizona wideout Tetairoa McMillan in his recent mock draft.

McMillan is a rangy pass catcher who can bring a big presence and complement Chris Olave, who is entering the fourth year of his rookie contract. He can not only go up and snatch the ball out of the air (McMillan's 16 contested catches are 19th-most in the FBS), but his 6-foot-5, 212-pound stature presents multiple problems for defenses. Capable of playing from the slot or the outside, McMillan averaged 109.9 receiving yards per game this season (fourth most in the FBS). New Orleans lacks offensive playmakers, so this makes some sense here.

As Reid said, the Saints lack playmakers outside of Olave, so adding a top-tier weapon in the draft would make sense. Whoever is under center for New Orleans in 2025 would have a formidable duo to throw to in this case, as McMillan is one of the draft's top pass catchers. He caught 84 passes for 1,319 yards and eight touchdowns for the Wildcats in 2024, bringing his career total to 26 trips to the endzone over three seasons. He'd be a perfect complement to Olave for years to come.
