The moment of the shortage of news Derek Carr could be absent for the 2025 season with a shoulder injury was not ideal for the Saints of New Orleans.
Now everyone can get a quarter of a quarter in the NFL draft I went from a possibility for saints of practically a necessity.

The saints were in good place to write a quarter-Arrière, probably Sheder Sanders. The adjustment seemed good on both sides. The use of the ninth overall choice did not seem exorbitant. It seemed intelligent, taking a quarter to develop for the future while Carr started at least the 2025 season as QB1.
The Carr News changes the emergency. While waiting for a quarter to a quarter, either for the last laps, or until next year, no longer seems to be an option.
DEION SANDERS, head coach and father of the SheDer, seemed to realize it too.
The saints have a greater need for QB

Earlier this week, the propeller on what position the saints would write first were led by the quarterrier at +300 dimensions (bet $ 100 to earn $ 300). Then the short stories from Carr fell. Friday afternoon, the chances that the saints wrote a QB had gone to -105. The next list has been the corner of +625 ratings quite long.
Everyone knows that the saints do not only want a quarter. They probably cannot afford to leave the first day of the draft without one. Since Carr news came out before the draft, all the other teams now know it too. The seated teams in front of the saints in the project have more commercial lever if New Orleans wants to go up. If there are teams behind the saints at n ° 9 looking at Sanders or Jaxson DartThey know that the saints are very likely to take a quarter of a quarter at n ° 9 or earlier if they go up.
It is not as if anyone thought that Carr was the long-term quarter of the saints. But now he may not be the short-term response either. This probably puts the plan of the saints plan.

What will the saints do?
If the saints write Sanders, Dart or another quarter-Arrière like Jalen MilroeThe situation is not as great as it seemed before the news of Carr's injury.

Apart Cam roomThere does not seem to be a quarter of a quarter in this class whose best path to success was to start from week 1. Having one of these recruits is seated for a year behind a veteran loved Carr seemed to be a better plan. This could no longer be achievable in New Orleans if Carr is absent for the 2025 season due to surgery.
If the saints push Sanders and want him to sit down, Spencer RATTLER Or Jake Haener could fill the gap for a year. It is far from ideal and will probably not lead to much success in 2025, but it would allow the saints to slowly bring Sanders. It may not be pretty along the way.
In short, things have become more disorderly for the saints due to Carr's injury. They have the ninth choice but cannot be sure that the quarter-rear they wish will be there, if there are a quarter of a quarter that they want in the first round. They could feel more pressure to write a first-round quarter even if they are not completely sold to them. The rest of the NFL knows that now, which harms the lever of saints. And if the saints write a quarter, making it sit and learn for a year may not be a viable option. The first year head coach Kellen Moore cannot feel good about it.
Before Friday, the favorite of the bets to land Sanders was the saints. This possibility seemed to become much stronger after discovering that the saints may not have many other quarter options for 2025.
