Saints signed LSU WR Travin Dural.
Dural (6’1/202) made 30 starts for LSU, amassing a 100/1,716/13 (17.2 YPR) career receiving line with descending production in his sophomore through senior years. He battled knee, hamstring, and shoulder injuries in college and struggled with drops at January’s Senior Bowl. Dural is also old for a rookie, turning 24 in October. While Dural deserves something of a pass due to LSU’s horrendous quarterback play, nothing he put on college tape suggests Dural is capable of becoming more than an NFL backup. After running 4.57 in Indy, Dural’s initial NFL ticket will be as special teams help.
