The Saints apparently were intrigued by the 5-foot-11, 186-pound Rolle, who went undrafted out of Catawba College, a Division II school in Salisbury, N.C., before being signed by the Bills and subsequently waived Monday.

In two preseason games with the Bills, Rolle was in on four tackles, had an interception and defended two passes.

"He was just a guy that we had good grades on," Payton said of Rolle. "I think we are pretty deep at the position and yet here is a guy that has good size, good ball skills and transitions well. So you don't find out until the waivers are turned in to the league office, then you are awarded the player. So that was something that happened just a little bit ago.

"But he is an interesting prospect, again a first-year guy, a rookie. So we will take a peek."
