The game of "will they or won't they" with Alvin Kamara and the Saints is finally over, and the star running back is confirmed back in New Orleans for at least one more season. Our Saints Insiders discuss that, plus the idea that maybe the local media and fans have good reason to be more optimistic than national consensus on the Saints. Is this the NFL's next worst-to-first team?

The New Orleans Saints have had several strong drafts in a row, leading to a younger roster and more young players in significant roles. With that in mind, on this episode, the Saints Insiders put together a draft of all Saints players under age 25.

With Tyler Shough and Chris Olave over the age cutoff, who would be your No. 1 pick? Which of our panelists came up with the best youth squad? And who did we miss?

The New Orleans Saints have high hopes for the 2026 season, but what do the numbers say? Our Saints Insiders took a look at the sportsbook lines for several Saints' statistical totals and then picked whether they think that player will go over or under his projected total. Included are:

• Tyler Shough passing yards and touchdowns

• Travis Etienne rushing yards and touchdowns

• Chris Olave and Jordyn Tyson receiving numbers \

• Chase Young sacks

With the Saints' offseason training programs complete and a long wait to training camp, the Saints Insiders do an early projection of the team's 53-man roster for opening day. From surprise cuts (Alvin Kamara? Davon Godchaux?) to bubble battles (how many edge rushers will make it?), we'll break down the number crunch for an early look at who will be in black and gold on Sept. 13 against the Detroit Lions.

The New Orleans Saints are done with offseason training with the conclusion of mandatory minicamp this week. Our Saints Insiders give their top takeaways from the past four weeks of practices, starting with the obvious development of second-year quarterback Tyler Shough. We also talk Cam Jordan's return, Alvin Kamara's saga, the rookie injury problem and more.

Defense won the day at the third open session of OTAs for the New Orleans Saints this week, but that led our Saints Insiders into a discussion about the offense. Kellen Moore says he wants to run the ball more, and we're seeing more tight ends on the field at the same time. What does that mean for the Saints' usage of heavy personnel? And where do the wide receivers fit into that? Speaking of which, a lot of those wide receivers are still dealing with injury. And finally, quarterback Tyler Shough is at the center of all of this, continuing to back up the faith the Saints have placed in him for 2026.

The second open practice of New Orleans Saints OTAs featured the surprise return of running back Alvin Kamara, who historically has skipped the optional offseason sessions but made an appearance in the midst of drama surrounding the final year of his contract.

Our Saints Insiders discuss that dynamic, as well as dive into the rising cost of Chris Olave's contract extension and look at our Saints players with the most to prove in 2026.

The New Orleans Saints started OTAs this week with a new look. Gone are Demario Davis, Taysom Hill and Cam Jordan (at least for now). In is the leadership of Tyler Shough, who in addition to his on-field responsibilities is shouldering the load as a locker room leader and face of the franchise. Can he do it? Our Saints Insiders discuss.

Also covered on this episode:

• Time to worry about rookies not practicing?

• The tight end revolution is coming to New Orleans

• Jonas Sanker moves into the spotlight

The New Orleans Saints veterans are back on the practice field for the first time for the 2026 season. We won't be able to draw concrete conclusions from OTAs, but they do offer a few clues for training camp and the season to come. On this episode, the Saints Insiders discuss:

• Tyler Shough taking control

• Travis Etienne's vibes

• Jordyn Tyson, Christen Miller and injury management

• Position battles

• Wide receiver rotation

With the New Orleans Saints a week away from their first OTA, our Saints Insiders take a moment to play Buy or Sell? with some predictions for the 2026 team.

Are we buying or selling:

• Tyler Shough sophomore jump

• Offensive line as a top 15 unit

• All 11 defensive starters currently on roster

• Chris Olave getting an extension before training camp

• Enough leadership without Cam Jordan and Demario Davis
