I remember there was talk about the Saints liking Delp a few weeks ago. There might even be a thread on here, but I know I read that somewhere

You ain't lying hoss. I wasn't as shocked with the name as I should have been and this is the only real place I look for Saints stuff

Don’t feel like looking it up, but wasn’t Fant signed for a low end deal that the team can essentially walk away from after this season

Fant is just a guy at this point. He doesn't stop you from picking anyone

From Walter Football:

quote:

New Orleans Saints New Orleans Saints: Oscar Delp, TE, Georgia B Grade
The Saints needed another tight end, so this makes sense. Oscar Delp is a very athletic tight end, and I had him going around this range. It’s a fine choice, but not a very exciting one.

From Dane Brugler/The Athletic:

quote:

A three-year starter at Georgia, Delp was a Y tight end in offensive coordinator Mike Bobo’s offense. He played alongside Brock Bowers in 2022 and 2023 and was expected to become more of a featured part of the offense over his junior and senior seasons. However, his receiving production declined slightly over the past two years — he never reached 25 catches in a single season at Georgia.

Delp is a good-sized athlete who is still figuring out how to reach his football ceiling. He has above-average speed and body control for his frame, which shows in his route running and when he has a runway after the catch (he models his game after AJ Barner). He plays with physicality in all areas of his game, although his catch-point focus tends to decline when he’s challenged. He strains as a blocker, inline and on the move, although his lack of length limits him at times.

Dane’s takeaway
Delp has an underwhelming college resume, but grading to the flashes shows an NFL player who can impact games as a receiver and blocker. He is a prime candidate to be a better pro than he was a college player.

Can use him to help block whoever gets past Ruiz.

Running 4.48 on the 40 yard dash as a 250 lb TE is only "above average" now? Sheesh

What I like is that while his size says he's not a big mauling TE, his tape says he is. Dude blocks nasty.
