Surprise Saints selection in first The Saints selected Turner in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, 28th overall.

Impact Some might accuse the Saints of reaching for Turner (6-foot-6, 268 pounds) in the first round, but it's difficult to argue against him as a prospect. He's tall but well-built and has rare reach (35 and 3/8-inch arms) to go with standout athleticism (35.5-inch vertical, 7.01-second three cone, 4.31-second 20-yard shuttle). He was a productive player at Houston, too, producing 10.5 tackles for loss and five sacks in five 2020 games. It appears the Saints were anxious about the free-agent departure of Trey Hendrickson.
