The New Orleans Saints appeared to be zeroed in on a former Georgia football player ahead of the 2025 NFL draft. The NFL draft is set to start this week on Thu

Longhorns defensive tackle Vernon Broughton, a 6-foot-5, 290-pound senior that recorded 39 tackles, four sacks, and two forced fumbles last season, has been selected in round three by the New Orleans Saints in the 2025 NFL Draft.

The New Orleans Saints had another below-average year with a very subpar roster, to say the least. The Saints dealt with multiple injuries last season, including quarterback Derek Carr and wide receiver Chris Olave.
