New Orleans Saints 2026 Fantasy Outlook: Chris Olave, Tyler Shough & the Backfield
Description
Mike Vadala and Cam White read the New Orleans Saints' 2026 offseason tea leaves and break down what it all means for your fantasy football drafts.
The crew centers on WR1 Chris Olave, fresh off an extension that makes him one of the league's highest-paid receivers, and second-year QB Tyler Shough, a volatile QB2 with real QB1 upside in Kellen Moore's offense. They dig into the Travis Etienne Jr. signing and the 1A-1B backfield with Alvin Kamara, rookie WR Jordyn Tyson's high-ceiling outlook and the hamstring injury that will sideline him to start the season, and Oscar Delp as a dynasty TE stash behind Juwan Johnson.
Topics covered in this episode: Chris Olave's outlook and extension, the Etienne and Kamara backfield, Tyler Shough's year-two leap, Jordyn Tyson's rookie outlook, Kellen Moore's offense, and Saints redraft and dynasty buys for 2026.
