The Saints are having another Tennessee product in for a visit this week. According to The Score's Jordan Schultz, Volunteers wide receiver Jalin Hyatt will be in New Orleans on Wednesday for a pre-draft visit.

Hyatt recently won the Biletnikoff Award after turning in 1,267 yards on 67 catches with 15 touchdowns. Schultz reports that Hyatt is visiting the Cowboys on Tuesday.

Tennessee's Hendon Hooker is in town for today, and it's no surprise to see the Saints look at the Volunteers for talent.

For starters, they've had some good success there from both drafted and undrafted players. Kodi Burns, the team's wide receiver coach, has been a tremendous addition to the room as well. Hendon Hooker talked about him at the Scouting Combine.

He said, "(Kodi Burns) is a great guy and a great football mind as well. He implemented a lot of good plays with us at Tennessee that worked in our favor."
