Avery Young, a staple on Auburn's offensive line for the last three seasons, has signed with the New Orleans Saints

Young, from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, was a member of Auburn's 2012 recruiting class. He was tabbed to start as a true freshman, but an injury ended with a medical redshirt. He took over Pat Miller's starting tackle job in 2013 and played both Guard and Tackle in 2014 before spending all 2015 at the Right Tackle spot.

Young's versatility is going to make his new team happy. In a league where roster spots are at a premium, a player with experience at multiple spots on the line is a prized possession.
