The New Orleans Saints finally stood pat and used one of their original selections in the 2019 NFL Draft, adding Rutgers safety Saquan Hampton. Hampton (6-foot-1, 206 pounds) broke out in his 2018 senior year with three interceptions and 13 pass deflections. He has 167 tackles (115 solo) in his career for the Scarlet Knights.
Hampton did not finish all of the athletic testing at the combine, but his time in the 40-yard dash (4.48 seconds) is impressive for someone of his size. Like earlier Saints draft pick Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, he is someone likely to make their mark on special teams.
