The New Orleans Saints did an excellent job in the NFL Draft addressing the defensive line by taking defensive tackle Bryan Bresee and edge rusher Isaiah Foskey with their first two picks. 

Plenty of big-time players dropped in the draft, and the Saints took advantage by snagging wide receiver A.T. Perry in the sixth round. However, two Saints rookies in particular have a special event to attend at the end of the month.

Third-round running back Kendre Miller and fourth-round quarterback Jake Haener have been invited to the NFL Players Rookie Premiere in Los Angeles.

Per the NFLPA website:

“NFLPA Rookie Premiere provides partners with unmatched access to 40 of the NFL’s newest stars at their first major business and marketing event following the NFL Draft. This is one of the most valuable opportunities available to NFLPA partners because it’s the first time to connect directly with professional football’s most promising and marketable young players–all in one place—and build content and relationships that extend into the season and beyond.”

The NFL is all about entertainment, but it's a business at the end of the day. This is a great way for these young players to lay the groundwork for endorsement opportunities and make other business connections.
