The Saints did not have a second round pick that year because they traded it to the Rams in exchange for sharing the Rams scouting combine info for the 1967 draft
WTF
We were so dumb. How often did that happen back then? We'll give you a 2nd round pick for info on players that we can now not draft.

Pete Rozelle brokered the deal. He was the GM for the Rams before becoming commissioner.
Very interesting.
Fortunately for the Saints, the Rams picked Gary Beban with the pick. It was a big deal back in the day because the Commish got the Rams a sweetheart deal and they drafted the hometown Heisman Trophy winner out of UCLA. But that actually didn't work out and the Rams traded him to the Redskins before the season began.

Round out that stellar year. Talk about getting nothing with your first round selection.
