Saints Snag Versatile Tight End Oscar Delp

0:00On April 25th, the New Orleans Saints are killing it in the 2026 NFL draft, snagging wide receiver Jordan Tyson at the 8th overall. Pick in round 1, then grabbing Georgia defensive tackle Christian Miller at number 30 overall. They kept the momentum going by selecting another Georgia Bulldog, Titan Oscar Delp at number 73 overall. Delp's a 22-year-old senior, standing six-foot-five and 245 pounds, bringing solid receiving skills to the mix. Last season, he hauled in 20 passes for 261 yards and won touchdown, and the year before that, 21 catches for two. 148 yards with four scores. He's walking into a stacked tight-in room with guys like Joanne Johnson, Noah Fant, Zaire Mitchell-Pradin, and Mola Key-Motavo are already holding it down. Fans are buzzing about the depth this adds, especially after the Saints beefed up their receiver and D-line early. Right now, Delp figures to be a quality number three option behind the vets, providing reliable depth without rushing him into the starting lineup.
