The first two days of the 2025 NFL draft are behind us, but the New Orleans Saints still have a lot of work to do on Day 3. The Saints go into the final day of the draft with multiple selections in the fourth (Nos. 112, 131) and seventh (Nos. 248, 254) rounds, plus a single pick in Round 6 (No. 184). But they don’t own a fifth-round pick after previously trading it.

And while 100-plus players heard their names called through the first three rounds of selections, there is still talent on the board. The biggest name is Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, whose stock appears to be in freefall, and who probably isn’t an option for the Saints after they drafted Tyler Shough in Round 2. But never say never.

So who could they add on Day 3? Here are the 30 best players remaining on the board:

  1. QB Shedeur Sanders, Colorado
  2. OG Marcus Mbow, Purdue
  3. WR Elic Ayomanor, Stanford
  4. EDGE Jack Sawyer, Ohio State
  5. WR Jalen Royals, Utah State
  6. EDGE Bradyn Swinson, LSU
  7. RB Cam Skattebo, Arizona State
  8. RB Dylan Sampson, Tennessee
  9. EDGE Kyle Kennard, South Carolina
  10. DT Joshua Farmer, Florida State
  11. WR Isaiah Bond, Texas
  12. RT Cameron Williams, Texas
  13. DT Deone Walker, Kentucky
  14. S Billy Bowman Jr., Oklahoma
  15. CB Quincy Riley, Louisville
  16. LB Danny Stutsman, Oklahoma
  17. LB Chris Paul Jr., Ole Miss
  18. LB Barrett Carter, Clemson
  19. TE Gunnar Helm, Texas
  20. DT CJ West, Indiana
  21. RB DJ Giddens, Kansas State
  22. WR Tory Horton, Colorado State
  23. QB Quinn Ewers, Texas
  24. RB Damien Martinez, Miami
  25. DT Jordan Phillips, Maryland
  26. S Lathan Ransom, Ohio State
  27. WR Xavier Restrepo, Miami
  28. QB Will Howard, Ohio State
  29. RB Bhayshul Tuten, Virginia Tech
  30. CB Dorian Strong, Virginia Tech

The third and final day of the 2025 NFL draft will begin at 11 a.m. CT/Noon ET, with picks being broadcast live from Green Bay on NFL Network, ESPN, and ABC.
