Saints select Minnesota Safety Jordan Howden How do you like the pick?
I watch a lot of BIG10 football and have seen him a bit. He's more solid than anything and could develop with us. Smart player and sure tackler. Plenty fast looking as a player, here is a blurb:
Howden (6'/203) was a walk-on at Minnesota but earned a starting job as a freshman because of injuries. He remained a mainstay of the Gophers' lineup for all five years of his collegiate career. Howden capped his career with career-highs in tackles (40), TFLs (3.5), and intercep[tions (two). His experience should allow him to quickly pick up a backup role in the NFL.
