The player that everyone expects to take the job is 2024 seventh-round pick Devaughn Vele. It comes after a rookie season where Vele had the most production from a seventh-round pick since Sean Payton’s former receiver in New Orleans, Marques Colston. Vele played 470 snaps, with 297 of them coming from the slot, as Payton has tended to prefer bigger receivers as his slot receiver.
