3 roto titles · 57 seasons (1970–2026)
The New Orleans Saints have won the Roto Champ three times in 57 seasons, most recently in 2016. All of them landed inside a 9-season window between 2008 and 2016, which makes this a single concentrated peak rather than a steady contender. Their average finish is 15.4 all time, against 14.1 over the last ten seasons, essentially unchanged from its historical level.
The best single roto season in franchise history belongs to Jimmy Graham in 2013, worth a 4.1 z-score. Drew Brees is the franchise’s most persistent roto presence, owning 6 of its 50 best seasons. The All-Franchise Team below is strictly positional, which is hard on Bobby Hebert, Reggie Bush and Wayne Wilson: each rates above somebody who made a team, but every slot at their position was already spoken for.
