Paul Turner, once with LSU, hopes to stick with Saints

Paul Turner didn't know at the time just how much talent sat in that room.

Over here was Odell Beckham Jr. Over there was Jarvis Landry. Other wideouts on the LSU football team then were Reuben Randle, Russell Shepard and James Wright. All five have played multiple seasons in the NFL.

"It was a lot of talent," Turner said. "Definitely a lot of talent."

The former West Monroe football star arrived at LSU in 2011 in the same recruiting class as Beckham and Landry. Travin Dural arrived the next year. After another season, his second in Baton Rouge, Turner transferred to Louisiana Tech and played his final three college seasons 30 minutes from his home town.
