'Meant to be': Saints sign G Landon Turner, make high school dream reality
Posted May 2, 2016

Eight years later, the first-team All-American from UNC might be the biggest prize in the Saints’ 2016 class of undrafted free agents. “I feel like it was meant to be,” said Turner, who visited the Saints' practice facility as a freshman in high school.
