Update The 2022 Saints undrafted free agent class (3 Viewers)

WOW! That's a steep price for an UDFA!


Well, I was gonna make a crack about him being faster than anyone Idaho State or Southern Utah was able to trot out there, but then I saw he had a return against the actual Utah Utes as well, so maybe there's something there. Although honestly, don't we really already have a more advanced version already on the roster?

If you're referring to Hardy/Harris, then yeah. But it seems like the staff is ready to transition him to a legit WR and off of special teams - where most of his injuries seem to come from. This guy is a bit bigger, so would probably be able to handle the bigger hits ST delivers.
 
Saints sign Notre Dame LB Isaiah Pryor and invite Boston College safety Mike Palmer.

I’m guessing that all of these “signings” are essentially invites to minicamp other than the ones that got big guaranteed money like Rashid Shaheed and Smoke Monday.

I think the Saints are holding a couple of spots for veteran free agents, which means they only have ten or so spots for UDFAs.

I’ve always wondered why the Saints or another team doesn’t just outbid all of the other teams for the ten or so UDFAs they want the most. With how many UDFAs wind up making the roster and becoming longterm contributors, it would seem like a wise investment and a drop in the bucket in terms of dead money on the cap.
 
Helluva return man tho.


Great speed. Reminds me of Deonte Harty. If he becomes our return man (at least kickoffs) then Deonte could focus more on receiver where he’s shown the ability to get open and has better hands than I expected.

More speed in the return game and on offense. You get a player like him the ball in open space and watch him eat up yards, same with Harry.

It seems like they did target the players they felt could make the roster on the bottom of the depth chart this year. Smith, Smoke and Shaheed look to be special teams contributes as well as developmental prospects for the respective units.

I would be surprised if we moved one of the most dynamic return men in the NFL off of special teams.
