Every second-round pick the Saints have made since 2002

The New Orleans Saints have a strong history picking in the second round, dating back to the early years of Mickey Loomis’ stewardship as general manager — where they found Pro Bowlers like LeCharles Bentley, Jon Stinchcomb, and Roman Harper. That success has continued in recent years with impact players like Vonn Bell, Marcus Williams, Erik McCoy, and of course, Michael Thomas.

We’ve already recapped the Saints’ history in Round 1. Here’s every player they’ve taken in Round 2 since 2002:
