Why did the New Orleans Saints trade for Devaughn Vele, and what do they expect out of him? Kellen Moore has some answers:

Peoples-Jones was officially released on Thursday, a day after the Saints traded a fourth and sixth-round draft pick to the Denver Broncos for Vele. Peoples-Jones did not have a catch in either of the Saints' first two preseason games.

Given a day to process the Devaughn Vele trade move and prepare his remarks, Broncos coach Sean Payton explained the combination of interest in Vele and a need to narrow down the receiver room led to the deal.
