Always an investment when you draft OL

This team needs help everywhere

They’ve drafted 10 first rounders in the trenches in the last decade and we still suck in the trenches. Make it make sense.

Doesn't matter who you have at qb when he has no time.

Soooo many 1st round picks spent on lineman. Most have been duds and we’re paying for it. Same ole story…

Would've rathered Campbell or membou.

This makes me think fuaga is moving to rt. Banks isn't really a rt.

Seems like we draft OL early every year now and I'm not sure how well it works. I wish so bad we'd draft a defensive baller early. Oh well. Hope he does well.

If Penning can perform at LG we may actually be 4/5ths if the way to a solid OL.

Ruiz still sucks though.

You usually tend to invest in areas you’re bad in

Some guys project him at G. Penning was decent at RT last year. Plug him in at LG and you are set. Left side of line is rock solid.

We arguably had one of the best lines in the league for the better part of that decade. Wasn't until 2021 we really started being not good there. 2017-2020 it was a toss up between us and Dallas for best line in the league.

Armstead-Peat-Unger/McCoy-Warford-Ram was absolutely filthy. We drafted 4 out of those 6.

I didn't think he'd be a good fit for the Saints, but then they started talking about how he has been constantly battling injuries, then it all made sense.

I just hate we took a Guard 9th overall when we could have drafted a starting Guard in the 3rd round

At this point, we’ll have drafted enough OL and DL to where we’ll have to start lining them up at WR and LB

Banks will play lt and fuaga rt.

Do you mean now they need a guard?

Can easily grab a guard with one of the two 3rds.
