Stutsman is the Saints' first linebacker selection in the 2025 draft. Earlier in the draft, New Orleans picked offensive tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. (Texas) in the first round, quarterback Tyler Shough (Louisville) in the second round and defensive tackle Vernon Broughton (Texas) and safety Jonas Sanker (Virginia) in the third round.

The New Orleans Saints selected Oklahoma LB Danny Stutsman with the No. 112 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft. With Danny Stutsman's combination of size and speed, he has plenty of potential to become a quality linebacker in the NFL. He has a good frame and weight, and he fits the body type of a modern linebacker perfectly.

Former Oklahoma and Foundation Academy linebacker Danny Stutsman was the 112th selection of the draft, picked by the New Orleans Saints in the fourth round.
