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

I don't want to trade up because I think this team desperately needs draft picks to build depth, but you are right that with our DL instead of Philly's DL, Baun wouldn't be as good. And maybe Werner would look better if we had a better DL to keep him clean. But, hopefully we can add a big DT after the first if Graham doesn't fall to #9.

For me, as I ponder this thread, it’s coming down to whether or not Graham is worth using #9. If he’s the next Willfork , Seymour, or Donald (or even Sapp), then he is probably worth #9. We need someone to complement Bresee as a run stopper. I just think that a DT at #9 should be a dominant player.
