SportsTalk with Bobby Hebert Audacy

Dennis Allen from Saints HQ tells us about the rationale for the Saints drafting Spencer Rattler in the 5th round at #150, what the team looked for and saw in the players the Saints ended up drafting, and where the team is looking with the undrafted market opening up in the coming days and weeks.

Josiah Ezirim, offensive tackle from Eastern Kentucky, the final pick of the Saints 2024 NFL Draft, joins the guys to discuss joining the New Orleans Saints, his time at the East-West Shrine Game, his father's past playing soccer at Ohio State, what he expects heading to the NFL, and who he's worked out with this offseason.

Heading into our last hour, Deuce McAllister gives the guys a peek behind the curtain of how the draft process was for him, and finally, the Saints 7th round pick at #239 is offensive tackle from Eastern Kentucky, Josiah Ezirim, who has the size to become a monster for this Saints O-line. Later on, Josiah Ezirim joins WWL to discuss the opportunity ahead of him coming from Eastern Kentucky who played in the East-West Shrine game, his time spent this offseason training, and his father's career at Ohio State playing soccer. We also hear from Dennis Allen hot off the 2024 NFL Draft, to discuss drafting Spencer Rattler in the middle of the 5th round, what he looked for and saw in the players the Saints ended up drafting, and where the team is looking with the undrafted market opening up in the coming days and weeks.

The draft just doesn't slow down as the 6th round pushes us closer and closer to the final pick in the 7th round at #239 that the Saints have, who would we like to see end up as that final pick, if even a punter is on the menu for New Orleans, and the Pels are getting beat something BAD as this playoff series has been U-G-L-Y. Also we hear from Khristian Boyd, Northern Iowa defensive tackle, who is a man on a mission in the trenches, going against "grown-ass men" as he calls them, and the Pelicans on the edge of falling devastatingly to OKC at home, does this lackluster playoff performance mean huge changes are coming for the Pels and the 7th round is finally starting up with the Saints having only 1 pick in this final round!

Khristian Boyd, a defensive tackle from Northern Iowa, talks about his time spent in New Orleans for his draft visit, who he visited with while he was in the Big Easy, Boyd's biggest influence on his style of play, his conversation with another Northern Iowa alum, Trevor Penning, and what is his mentality while he's in the trenches of a D-line.

Jaylan Ford, a linebacker from Texas now rocking the black & gold, joins WWL to talk about how he feels about being drafted by the Saints, what position he plays as a linebacker, the weight he plays at, his experience being on a possible contender with the Texas Longhorns this past season, his ability to intercept the ball often, and his interest in special teams.
