WEATHERFORD

Sterling Weatherford, our 431st ranked linebacker, is best suited to be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the New Orleans Saints because they could use a player of this quality after losing Ryan Connelly for an extended period of time. The Saints currently have 6 healthy linebackers, and 4 are rated better than Weatherford: (Ty Summers, Zack Baun, Terrell Lewis, and Pete Werner).

The Saints currently have no linebackers under contract beyond the 2027 season, so Weatherford is probably looking at a one year deal, due to his rank, with the team.
