BREAKING: Saints select Josiah Ezirim from Eastern Kentucky at Pick 239

New Orleans ends the draft by snagging another offensive tackle.

The New Orleans Saints added another offensive tackle in the final round of the 2024 NFL draft by selecting Josiah Ezirim, an offensive tackle from Eastern Kentucky.

Ezirim stands at 6’6’’ and weighs 329 pounds. His RAS score was high at 8.50, which is something the Saints really take into consideration when drafting their future players. He spent four years with the Colonels but switched from the defensive line to the offensive line in 2022.

In the past two years, he’s played 1,392 snaps, all on offense. Ezirim would only allow two sacks, both coming in the 2022 season. He was named first-team All-UAC and the conference’s Offensive Lineman of the Year.
