The NFL Scouting Combine is underway. What QB, WR, or TE’s should the New Orleans Saints be watching on Thursday, February 27, 2020.

The NFL Scouting Combine is underway starting on February 27, 2020, with on-field workouts. The majority of college athletes that are entering the NFL Draft will be on display during the next four days of workouts.

February 27th will feature quarterbacks, wide receivers, and tight ends. February 28th will feature special teams, kickers, offensive linemen, and running backs. February 29th will feature defensive linemen and linebacker.

The last day on March 1st will feature cornerbacks, safeties, and all defensive backs. We are going to focus in on Thursday featuring quarterbacks, wide receivers, and tight ends. For the most part, the New Orleans Saints are desperate for a No. 2 wide receiver.

Last year, Michael Thomas saw almost 50% of the overall reception share for the Saints. The next two largest percentages were Jared Cook and Alvin Kamara — neither of which are wide receivers. Therefore, the Saints’ first-round pick will need to be a wide receiver.

Let’s breakdown the top four players to watch on Thursday’s combine workouts.
