Taylor Mehlhaff, a sixth-round pick who was drafted as a kicker, and Adrian Arrington, a seventh-round selection who was drafted as a wide receiver, both agreed to three-year contracts with the team, Saints General Manager and President Mickey Loomis said in a statement.
“After watching these players progress through minicamps and the off-season program, we’re eager to see them compete in training camp and on into game action,” Loomis said. “Both of these young men are players that could make an impact on our ballclub.”
Mehlhaff, a kicker from the University of Wisconsin, is the first kicker drafted by the Saints since Morten Andersen in 1982 when he was selected in the sixth round.
Arrington, 6’3”, 192-pound receiver, played 35 career games for the University of Michigan, catching 109 passes for 1,438 yards and 16 touchdowns.
