Some interesting names taking part in New Orleans Saints rookie minicamp
By Larry Holder, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune There always seems to be a few interesting names that pop up on the New Orleans Saints' rookie minicamp roster each offseason with most of the players actually participating during the three-day camp suiting up for a tryout hoping to earn a contract. Veteran quarterback John Beck and rookie wide receiver Duron Carter fit the bill this year. Beck was a former second-round pick by the Dolphins in 2007 who has bounced around the league from Miami to Baltimore to Washington, where he started three games in 2011, to Houston. Beck holds a career passer rating of 67.6 with three touchdowns and seven interceptions. Carter is the son of Hall of Fame wide receiver Cris Carter and will be trying out for the Saints after leaving the Vikings rookie minicamp last weekend without a contract. Former LSU standouts kicker Josh Jasper and defensive lineman Josh Downs will be in camp, along with Tulane long snapper Billy Johnson, son of Saints defensive line coach Bill Johnson. Here's the full list of participants in this weekend's rookie minicamp: P Dalton Botts, Miami (Fla.) K Jose Maltos, No college K Josh Jasper, LSU LS Billy Johnson, Tulane QB Jon Richt, Mars Hill QB John Beck, BYU QB Ryan Griffin, Tulane WR Kyle Fisher, Bloomsburg WR Andy Tanner, Midwestern State WR Brent Leonard, ULM WR Saalim Hakim, Tarleton State WR La'Rod King, Kentucky WR Khiry Robinson, West Texas A&M WR Duron Carter, Florida Atlantic WR Charles Hawkins, Southern WR Kenny Stills, Oklahoma TE Keavon Milton, ULM TE Andrei Lintz, Washington State TE Ryan Deehan, Colorado TE Josh Hill, Idaho State DB Chantz Stevenson, Southern DB Brandon Robinson, Liberty DB A.J.
