Saints sign WR Toon

The New Orleans Saints signed fourth-round pick Nick Toon to a four-year deal on Monday.

Toon was the final player in the Saints' five-player draft class to sign.

The Wisconsin product is the son of former Jets wide receiver Al Toon. At 6-3, 218, he's not a burner but fits the Marques Colston mold as a big target with soft hands. He caught 64 passes for 926 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2011 as a senior for the Badgers.

In four seasons at Wisconsin, Toon caught 170 passes for 2,447 yards and 18 touchdowns.
