Feel-good story travels beyond Superdome

Before then, in eight years as a college coach, Payton spent two seasons on the late Randy Walker's staff at Miami University.
And Walker helped shape a solid Saints draft by recommending one of his Northwestern players, former Milford High School star Zach Strief, to Payton. The Saints took Strief in the seventh round, and he was active and played for the first time in an emergency start at left tackle in the 31-14 victory earlier this month at Tampa Bay.
"In fact, on the way back from that game, I called (widow) Tammy Walker and I didn't get a chance to talk to her, but I left her a voice mail and told her I thought Randy would be proud to see Zach start in an NFL game."
