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

Even tho I’m a ‘build the lines first’ guy through and through I certainly see and appreciate your points.

What we can all agree on, I think, is that we have to draft better.

The Lions have essentially drafted purely BPA since Campbell took over because they address needs via free agency and not handing out gross contracts with no way out to players in their 30s. Thus they always have money to sign and re-sign the guys they want to keep while just pumping their team full of the best football players possible every draft.

The Lions have only drafted ONE offensive lineman in the first three rounds since Campbell arrived.
