One of the forgotten Quarterbacks in Saints history is Aaron Brooks, which is a shame considering he was a talented player who, for a few seasons, was on the cusp of being a Pro Bowler.

At the University of Alabama, Mark Ingram was a superstar.  The Crimson Tide Running Back captured the coveted Heisman Trophy in 2009, and his school won the National Championship.  He did this as a sophomore, and while he regressed due to knee issues as a Junior, Ingram was still expected to be a high pick, which he was, when the Saints took him 28^thOverall in 2011.

From Notre Dame, Dave Waymer played the entire decade of the 1980s with the New Orleans Saints, who took the Defensive Back with their Second Round Pick.

Jim Wilks made the most of his opportunity when the lightly regarded defensive player from San Diego State not only made the New Orleans Saints roster despite being a 12^thRound Pick, but he stayed with the team for his entire 13-year career.
