Updated future New Orleans Saints draft picks after trading Wil Lutz

Buy Saints Tickets

The New Orleans Saints completed a controversial roster move on Tuesday by trading former Pro Bowl kicker Wil Lutz to the Denver Broncos, reuniting him with his old coach Sean Payton — and bringing just a seventh-round pick in the 2024 draft back in return. So how many draft picks do the Saints have now?

Because NFL rules dictate that only picks in the next three draft cycles may be traded, we’re limited to the 2024 draft (to be held in Detroit), the 2025 draft (in Green Bay), and 2026 (location to be determined). Here is what the Saints have to work with:
