Fantasy Outlook
Vele became one of the oldest draft picks in recent years when the Broncos took him 235th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. He was 26 at the time, and turned 27 by the end of his rookie season, during which he emerged as Denver's No. 3 receiver (with a 41-475-3 receiving line to show for it). Last August, the Saints sent Denver a fourth-round pick (plus a seventh-rounder) in exchange for Vele, who then served as the third/fourth receiver in New Orleans behind Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed. After Shaheed was traded, Vele came on strong in Weeks 12-15 with 239 yards on 26 targets, only to then miss the final three games because of a shoulder injury. Vele should be healthy for training camp, but the Saints drafted WR Jordyn Tyson (first round) and WR Bryce Lance (fourth round) in April, massively upgrading competition for snaps and targets.Saints Lineup
