2026 NFL Mock Draft Shocker: Fernando Mendoza to Go No. 1, Commanders Snatch Surprise Star Jeremiyah Love and More Unbelievable Picks Revealed!
The Saints need to add juice off the edge to a defense that ranked 22nd in pressure rate last season. Rueben Bain Jr. comes in an NFL-ready body (short arms and all) and has the density requirement the Saints have preferred out of their defensive ends. Bain and Chase Young could be a nice duo as the Saints continue to turn the page into the next chapter of their post-Drew Brees era.
9. Arizona Cardinals (via Kansas City Chiefs) — Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami
The Cardinals address their offensive line with the first player in that position group off the board while adding pick No. 40 to their quiver. I almost went with Monroe Freeling here, but instead selected perhaps a cleaner fit in Mauigoa; a strong and technically proficient right tackle who could kick inside, both spots where the Cardinals would love to have any type of long-term solution.
