Ruiz is only 22, so I still have plenty of hope that he can develop into a good lineman.

Same here. I have always heard that an offensive line isn't a position but a single unit that grows stronger the longer they are together. The way we've rotated linemen in and out this season it makes it near impossible to grow. Read that Ruiz is the only Saints offensive lineman to have played 100% of the snaps this season.
