Every NFL team has a “secret weapon” and for the New Orleans Saints, it very well could be second-year tight end, Adam Trautman. The Saints spent a third-round pick on Trautman in last year’s draft and Trautman had just 171 yards with one touchdown during his rookie campaign, not instilling much confidence in him.

Now that Jared Cook and Josh Hill are no longer in New Orleans, however, it’ll open things up more for Trautman to take off and become one of the better tight ends in the league.
