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

I think Ruiz's play will be largely dictated by what's around him. He's not a guy, to my mind, who plays to a defined, good standard regardless of what's around him - an anchor essentially. His performance varies with how the guys next to him are performing. The only true anchor we have on this OL is McCoy. Jury is out on Fuaga going forward and Penning still has a mountain to climb to being a bona fide anchor providing consistent, good to high level OL play regardless of who's next to him or across the LoS from him. I don't even know who our LG will be.
