ROUND 1

No. 8: Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State

QUICK TAKE: Buckle up. The Saints passing attack could shift into overdrive this season. That is, of course, if the injury prone tag doesn't follow Jordyn Tyson into the NFL. There was no questioning the talent with the Arizona State star, but he's suffered a major knee injury, a broken collarbone and nagging hamstring injuries in college. If not for a workout at the end of the process to boost his stock, who knows if he's still on the board right now. Either way, Tyson is exactly what the Saints need for a group that struggled to hit downfield throughout the 2025 season. Over the last few weeks I'd convinced myself that it was WR or bust if either Tate or Tyson was available. Tate went off at No. 4 to the Titans. Time will tell if the Saints regret passing on star safety Caleb Downs, who went to the Cowboys at No. 11.
