Armand Membou - OT
Missou

At pick nine, the Saints take Armand Membou, who could be both a guard and a tackle at the NFL level. This is a sound selection for the Saints, and Membou could be an instant hit at the NFL. With how weak the NFC South is, I guess New Orleans could realistically compete for the division crown in the 2025 NFL Season. -Lou Scataglia
