Saints Day 3 Pick of NFL Draft: Auburn Guard Jeremiah Wright Taken In 4th Round at 132

In this story:
With the 132nd overall pick of the NFL Draft (32nd in the fourth round), the New Orleans Saints selected Auburn guard Jeremiah Wright.
It certainly fills a need at interior line, but Wright is not NFL ready and will need time to learn under Coach Kellen Moore and this offensive coaching staff.
A converted defensive lineman, Wright has massive size at 6-5, 330 pounds, and the team obviously has been interested, as they brought him in for a pre-draft visit earlier this month.
The Saints have another pick coming up shortly in the fourth round with 136th pick.
