With draft fever infecting every facet of the NFL right now, we decided to hold our own draft of sorts at CSC, only picking among every player who’s ever been a part of the New Orleans Saints. To keep things interesting and to truly find some deep cuts, we decided to look at an entire player's career for the purpose of this draft, not just their time with the Saints. This means that players like Champ Bailey and Brandon Marshall were fair game. The Saints most recent official all-time team was their 50th anniversary team released in 2016 which identified the top 50 players in franchise history. Here our four “GMs” each drafted a 22-man starting lineup and a 3-man special teams resulting in 100 former Saints being selected. Which team do you think would come out on top?
