New Orleans Saints is a Saints-centered football feed with a strong draft-season heartbeat. It comes out of Big 870 WWL’s Sports Talk orbit, and recent episodes sound like a live board being argued through in real time. The show is not just about names. It is about fit. Offensive guards are sorted by power, technique, arm length, and whether they belong in round one or early round two. Tackles are judged by athletic ceiling, coordination, projection, and the risk of starting too soon on the left side. Centers get the same treatment, with attention to calls, blitz recognition, rehab timelines, and how much an injury can shift draft value. Tight ends are measured by route movement, blocking effort, explosive speed, and drops. Defensive prospects are framed through job descriptions: eat double teams, stop the run, cover short and medium space, or take away a side of the field. The Saints angle keeps returning. Could pick eight be too rich for a running back or edge rusher? Should New Orleans trade down to gather more picks? Which player actually helps the rebuild move faster? The conversation likes strong labels but leaves room for caveats. A prospect can be a comfort pick, a wild card, a wall against the run, or a player who needs the right coach. Deuce McAllister brings the clearest color-analyst voice in the excerpts, pressing the value of trade opportunities while still grounding everything in what a team can prove on tape. Mike Dettay and Charlie Long appear across the draft breakdowns, keeping the rhythm brisk and evaluative. The feed also carries interview and press-conference material, including a Zach Wilson segment, so not every episode has the same shape. Ads and syndicated openings can be prominent. Once the football talk arrives, though, the appeal is specific: Saints fans get draft logic, roster needs, and player traits translated into usable football language.
Made for: Built for Saints fans who already follow roster needs, draft positioning, and NFL prospect chatter. It especially fits listeners who enjoy offensive line traits, scheme-fit debates, and practical pick-value arguments.
What sets it apart: The show keeps national draft analysis tethered to New Orleans decisions. Instead of broad prospect hype, it repeatedly asks where a player fits, how soon he can help, and what the pick would cost the Saints.
