We’ll take a look at one of the Saints’ secondary needs, running back, this week. But the organization should be heavily entrenched in this year’s guard class, and Penn State’s Olaivavega “Vega” Ioane is a name to keep an eye on.

“Ioane is the top pure guard in the class thanks to his ability to halt and generate movement on command,” offensive line scout Brandon Thorn said. “Ioane has been a notably steady presence on an otherwise inconsistent Nittany Lions offense over the first six weeks of the 2025 season.”

Top RB Fits on B/R Big Board

While Alvin Kamara has made it clear that he wants to stick it out in New Orleans, Kamara is only signed through next season and will turn 31 in July. Also, Kendre Miller’s contract expires next offseason, too. So, running back isn’t a top need, but it’s one worth exploring for the Saints, especially the Texas A&M product. 

“Moss is a talented running back with a three-down skill set to become an impact player and difference maker for an NFL offense,” offensive skill positions scout Dame Parson said. “Moss does multiple things well, from catching passes out of the backfield to pass protection and being a volume runner.”
