Not too surprising but Saints-Panthers coverage is limited to home markets this week. Areas marked in green on this @506sports.bsky.social map.

Sunday and Monday night's games will change the 2026 draft order a little, but not by much. Thanks to tiebreakers, the Saints have a slim lead on the first pick over the Titans, for now. Here are the 15 teams under .500, from @tankathon.bsky.social

Here's your updated top-10 for the 2026 NFL draft, via @tankathon.bsky.social. Not out of the woods yet with Patriots-Bills tonight and Chiefs-Jaguars on MNF impacting strength of schedule tiebreakers.

Saints-Bills in green on this @506sports.bsky.social map. Much of New England, the Ohio River Valley, and Wyoming (Josh Allen Country) will have this week's game on CBS. So will Miami. Lots of Dolphins fans hate-watching on Sunday.

With Week 2 in the books, the Saints are tied with the Jets for possession of the first overall pick. I'm not going to explore those tiebreakers two games into the year. But here's the top 10, per @tankathon.bsky.social

Shreveport has fallen. Most of the Saints' home market will receive the game this week, along with all of California and much of the Taysom Hill Country in Utah, Nevada, and Idaho. Broadcast map via @506sports.bsky.social

Still some moving parts and not sure what the Saints will be listing Tommy Mellott as, but here's my take on the Saints depth chart (53-man roster and practice squad) right now.
Remember, at least 10 players with 2 or fewer accrued seasons on PS. Up to 6 players with 3 or more.

Looks like Saints have met the limit of 10 players with 2 or fewer accrued seasons, so they can sign a couple of players with 3 or more before maxing out their practice squad.

Per @stathead.com , just 19 second-round quarterbacks have been drafted since NFL expansion back in 2002, and 11 started at least one game. Shough starting Week 1 would have been the exception, not the norm.
