Saints draft Tennessee cornerback Alontae Taylor with the No. 49 pick

Tennessee cornerback Alontae Taylor tightly held the picture frame.

First holding the frame in his right hand, Taylor slowly moved the frame closer to his face as New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan began to announce the team’s No. 49 pick.

When Taylor’s name was read aloud and his NFL dreams realized, he kissed the photo. A photo of his grandmother who died in 2009.

“She was the first person I made sure I gave a kiss to before hugging my mom,” Taylor said.

There were hugs all around as Taylor became a Saint.

I wonder if DA sees him at Corner or Safety, either way I can't say I'm unhappy.

I think DA has done very well so far, quality players with each pick.
