Saints Host Jeremiah Wright for Pre-Draft Visit

It's April 3rd. You're listening to NFL News today, AI-powered football coverage. I'm

Cory with the story.

The New Orleans Saints are hosting Auburn Offensive Lime and Jeremiah Wright for a pre-draft

30 visit in mid-April. This guy's a beast up front, starting 24 games over the last two

seasons with a 68.2 player efficiency grade that put him in, the 83rd percentile among

college guards.

Wright already broke bread with Saints officials at a formal breakfast, and sources say the New

England Patriots have him wind up for a visit too. NFL projections peg him as a mid-to-late-day

two-pick, most likely in the third round out of Selma, Alabama. He turned heads at the

senior bowl, near his hometown, and earned a spot at the NFL Scouting Combine, where his

83.5-inch wingspan.

Ranked 99th percentile, Tape shows him exploding as a run blocker with real power, though past

protection needs polishing, per scouts.

Saints desperately want to amp up their ground game after ranking 28th in rushing yards

and 31st per carry last season. They win big and free agency, grabbing running back Travis

Etienne Jr., and guard David Edwards on multi-year deals.

With picks at number 42 and 73 on day two, New Orleans might snag Wright right there,

or trade up if he slides. Keep watching how this shakes outcome draft time.
