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

I agree it makes zero sense to draft a QB with the lackluster prospects of this draft, but I'll add that even if we ARE in win now mode, it still makes no sense because none of the ones in this class could help us do that.
Every one of them is a prospect at best, and IMHO, almost all, if not all, of them will have short starting stints and within a couple of years either be backups or out of the league.

And therefore use this draft to build the pieces around which Carr and his successor can achieve some success. We want to avoid repeating his brother’s fate where he wasn’t provided the tools to succeed (as I understand it). I might be in the minority in believing that Carr can serve for a year or two until we can find a younger replacement. He’s not Heath Shuler.
