The jump by LA to snag Murray probably caught them off guard. Get it? But seriously, I'm uber happy with Ruiz.

Trade Warford and our 2021 2nd rounder for a 2nd rounder today? Remember we’ll have two 3rd rounders next year because of a comp pick for Bridgewater so that’ll lessen the blow of losing a 2nd rounder.

Saints are giving up too much in that deal for a second rounder...

That's is a great point - When New England traded back, Payton Camp thought they had their boy in Murray; they likely thought the Chargers were going CB or Safety...

Then the Chargers selected Murray...

Have no doubt that with the Wuhan Virus spectre causing social distancing that that limited the Saints ability to coordinate a trade back within what is normally a too long selection period...

Believe today was the day we were to trade up into the second in a package deal with Warford and/or Peat and take Ruiz early in the second...

Instead they adjusted the plan and made the mild reach of Ruiz...

Why would you think Ruiz was a reach when he was clearly the best interior offensive lineman in the draft? In your mind it may have been a reach, but you aren't the one doing the REAL drafting, my friend so your opinion of what signifies a reach is just that ... your opinion.

As for myself, I thought it was a great pick that addressed one of the biggest needs we had coming into this season.
