Saints move up two spots to take N.C. State DE Pressley

After waiting for more than four hours to make any sort of Day 2 draft move, the Saints traded up two spots with Detroit in the fifth round to select North Carolina State defensive tackle DeMario Pressley with the first of their two fifth-round picks (No. 144 overall).

Pressley (6-foot-3, 301 pounds) racked up 38 tackles, 1 1/2 sacks and two interceptions during his senior season.

The Saints will again be on the clock shortly as they'll pick at No. 164.
