New Orleans Saints second-year breakout candidate Pete Werner may be in for an expanded role in 2022. With Kwon Alexander visiting the New York Jets, the path may become more clear in the coming days.
Werner may not have piled on the stat sheet, but what he did well, he did at an impressive level. Despite being thrown into action against the Miami Dolphins with little prep, he played the defensive quarterback role extremely well and has earned a bigger role next season.
Which NFL Draft wide receivers, offensive linemen, and linebackers fit the Saints draft prototypes and could be selected if the Saints invest at their positions? Why Treylon Burks, Drake London, and Christian Watson are the most comfortable fits, but Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson's sub 4.4 40 times at the NFL Combine could put them in conversation despite size thresholds.
Rachaad White of Arizona State and James Cook of Georgia the two best fits at running back if the Saints draft one in this year's draft. With a possible Alvin Kamara suspension looming, it might make sense to grab insurance in the draft.
