Takeaways from Day 1 of New Orleans Saints rookie minicamp

The first day of New Orleans Saints rookie minicamp is in the books, and there's a lot to take away from an early-afternoon look at football in shorts. Between the much-hyped rookie draft picks hitting the practice field and surprisingly hard-hitting questions for head coach Kellen Moore after practice, we've got plenty of ground to cover. Let's hop to it.

Almost all of the rookie draft class is under contract Seven of the eight players the Saints drafted signed their four-year rookie deals on Friday : wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (Round 1), tight end Oscar Delp (Round 3), guard Jeremiah Wright and wide receiver Bryce Lance (Round 4), safety Lorenzo Styles Jr. (Round 5), wide receiver Barion Brown (Round 6), and cornerback TJ Hall (Round 7). That just leaves second-round defensive tackle Christen Miller as the lone unsigned rookie.

This was something we expected given the unique status of contracts with Round 2 picks, but it's also a situation the Saints have navigated before. It should be resolved soon enough. Christen Miller isn't practicing just yet Miller isn't just unsigned -- he isn't practicing with the rest of the team, either .

Head coach Kellen Moore said something came up when Miller was being evaluated after reporting for minicamp and the team decided to slow him down before putting him on the field. They want him to ramp up responsibly and not aggravate a minor injury into becoming something serious. Moore downplayed the severity of the situation but it does sound like Miller will need some time before he gets the green light.
