2 weeks ago | fox8live.com | Sean Fazende

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Take One: Tyler Shough the playerShough is not a perfect prospect. Even the ones that are high on him understand this. But he does have elite traits. Not good, not great, elite. By no means does that mean he’ll be an elite player. It just means he has some elite qualities to his game. That elite trait is his arm talent. His spins it better than anyone in this class outside of Cam Ward. Shough has the ability to make every throw from multiple platforms all over the field.

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - First Round (9th)Ty Warren Tight End Penn StateIt really came down to Warren or Jalon Walker here. With Carolina linked to Walker at eight, I went with Warren. Warren was a fun prospect to watch. He did so much for the Nittany Lions offense. He provides an incredible amount of versatility for the young, offensive-minded Kellen Moore. His position may technically be tight end but he’s more of an overall offensive playmaker. The Saints need as many of those as possible.

Aug 16, 2024 | fox8live.com | Sean Fazende

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Being a sportscaster is a joy. So few people get to do it. Even fewer get to do it in their hometown. Even fewer get to do it in THIS hometown: New Orleans, the most local city in America. It’s an incredible privilege. It’s an incredible responsibility. There’s an unspoken bond between those of us that have been lucky enough to do it here that are from here. It’s a quality that’s hard to put into words sometimes. You just know exactly what it is when you see it.
