this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I wonder if coaches have these visits with top QB prospects just to learn of the players they've faced, who are the best pass-catchers, CBs and lineman....

They said most teams already have decided who they want without the need for any "visit". Questioning about other players the visitors have faced is reportedly very common. Some visits are simply to throw off the sense of interest to other franchises, giving the false impression that the team is seriously considering a player they have no desire in drafting whatsoever. It was pretty interesting in that you come away thinking there is really nothing you can surmise as a fan by the fact of who has made team visits. |

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft
Andrew Armstrong - WR
Arkansas Big guy @ 6’4, played against top tier SEC talent weekly. Over 1100 receiving yards in 2024. X receiver, possession type (doesn’t drop many), chain mover & capable blocker. Not really talked about a lot. Could be a sleeper pick. Projects as a Day 3 selection. |

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft
FWIW, LSU’s Pro Day was on yesterday (3/26).
Hope Jeff Ireland & co took a final, quick look at TE Mason Taylor. IMO, he checks a lot of boxes & will translate well to the NFL. There is a ton of talent in Baton Rouge … |

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft
Big fan of Taylor. I’d be totally fine taking him instead of Warren
