Over the course of the last few weeks of March and the first few of April, many NFL teams are moving around the national circuit, doing their due diligence to research as many draft prospects as they can. The New Orleans Saints have been reported to have meetings with a significant number of players in this span of time, including nearly every position at this point in time.

A position that has been looked into a few times is offensive tackle, and recently, they sent run game coordinator T.J. Paganetti to Boise State to watch Kage Casey during the team’s pro day.

Casey is a promising left tackle prospect who could end up being a sought-after prospect in the upcoming draft. In 2025, across 942 snaps, he allowed only four sacks and 10 pressures, while being penalized twice (both of which came in one game). His best game of the year by far came against Utah State, where he played a whopping 94 snaps, not allowing a single pressure or sack, and not accruing a single penalty either.

He only tested minimally during the combine, only competing in the 40-yard dash (5.20 seconds), 10-yard split (1.85 seconds), and 3-cone drill (8.01 seconds). At the end of the day, though, his success comes from his size and anchor capabilities. At 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds with nearly 33-inch arms, he has what it takes physically to be a great tackle in the league.
