Saints player profile: Tomasi Laulile, defensive tackle, big year needed

Part of this piece is meant to show how little pre-draft meetings mean to the Saints. There are a lot of those going on right now and they lead to a lot of unwarranted speculation. We’ll cover that in a separate piece. Tomasi Laulile is an interesting story. He got to BYU and from there to the Saints based purelty on potential. For now, he’s been camped out on the Saints practice squad for the past year and, in January, the team signed him to a reserves/futures contract for the upcoming season.

The interesting part about Laulile’s story is that he only played two years of football in high school.
