With the 9th Pick in the 2025 draft, who should the Saints select? (merged)

I just don’t see the Saints organization willingly sacrificing a year in this blatant of a manner. For better or for worse, if Mickey Loomis is in charge again, he will go down swinging as far as asset management and attempting to win is concerned.

The desire by many to see the team do a total, full-on reset is going to be met with disappointment, IMO. Not saying it is the correct way or incorrect way, just saying people should adjust their expectations accordingly.

I expect Loomis will do next season what he did this season: He's not going to spend much, he will do the bare minimum cap wise, and he will either keep the picks he has or try to trade back and get more.

The Saints have never had to do a full-on roster turnover since after the 2005 season. It has been so long a lot of people forgot what that actually looks like and it isn't releasing 25 players in one offseason.
