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

Y'all twisting people's words.


I NEVER said he's not strong. I didn't even say he's not fast, I said he doesn;t have elite pull away speed. (He's always been a 4.5 speed guy) I even said I'd change my position on him if he ran a sub 4.5 at the combine.

I said he's an intriguing prospect.

I just don't think he's a whole class better than the other top 3 or 4 backs.

I will not be upset if we draft him, but if we could turn the number 10 pick into 2 players, I'd rather have two top tier players than 1.

Y'all do too much and twist people's post.

The data shows he has pull away speed regardless of what his combine time is. As I highlighted in my previous post, he hit 21+ mph 4 times this past season. No other player in the nation did so more than twice. He has legit top end speed, which can be seen on his several 50+ yard touchdowns last the past couple years including against some of the best teams in the nation (Washington/Oregon).
