Mississippi State running back Christian Ducré, a Lacombe native and lifelong Saints fan, says he was thrilled to sign a free-agent deal with his hometown team after he went undrafted over the weekend. But that excitement wasn't just about wearing the black and gold. The 5-foot-11, 225-pounder said he knows the Saints are looking for a power back like him, and he knows they have only three veteran running backs on their roster and that they have a history of giving chances to undrafted rookies. http://www.nola.com/saints/t-p/index.ssf?/base/sports-5/1272350416136120.xml&coll=1
