Saints Select Bryce Lance in the Fourth Round
The New Orleans Saints have selected North Dakota State wide receiver prospect Bryce Lance with the 136th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. He's the younger brother of former NDSU quarterback Trey Lance, and he had a terrific performance at the Scouting Combine earlier this offseason. Lance has the speed necessary to excel downfield, using his legs to gain separation from defenders. He draws some comparisons to Marquez Valdes-Scantling or Rashid Shaheed, two former Saints who have demonstrated a tendency to break off explosive plays. Over his final two collegiate seasons, Lance had 126 catches, 2,150 yards, and 25 touchdowns. He could immediately slot in as the Saints' No. 3 receiver behind Chris Olave and first-rounder Jordyn Tyson. Lance has impressive dynasty upside, and there's the potential for him to deliver some breakout fantasy performances as early as his rookie season. Because of his big-play upside, the biggest concern with Lance from a fantasy perspective is that he could end up being a weekly boom-or-bust, making it tough for managers to decide when to start him.
