The New Orleans Saints have had a few prospects on their list from the 2025 NFL draft class that they have shown increasing interest in. Between their three noted official 30 visits to some specific private workouts with players, they have been certainly doing their due diligence on this class to ensure they have a grasp of who they would like to select.
One of the players they recently met with is UTSA cornerback Zah Frazier, and not only that, they were one of three teams to send either a coach or scout to specifically watch him. In a recent report by Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda, he clarified this information, stating the following information regarding the workout: "The Saints, Falcons, and San Francisco 49ers sent coaches and scouts specifically to watch Frazier, who has a fifth-round grade on my board."
Frazier is an exceptionally fast cornerback with solid size and had an absolutely outstanding 2024 season in terms of production. Last year he put up 24 total tackles (20 solo, 4 assisted), 9 pass deflections, 1 forced fumble, 1 tackle for loss, and a whopping 6 interceptions. In his first two years at UTSA he had none, granted he only played five games in 2023, so that can be taken with a grain of salt.
He ended up receiving an invite to the NFL Scouting Combine, and torched it, putting up a 9.43 RAS via Kent Lee Platte. This came on the back of a 4.36-second 40-yard dash and a 1.47-second 10-yard split, as well as an over 10-foot broad jump.
The Saints no doubt have a strong need at the cornerback position, and adding quality players with positive traits to work with is the way to fix that. Frazier has shown a season of high-level production, and put up strong athletic testing, so he could be someone worth looking at for the Saints on Day 3 of the draft.
