⚜️WEEKLY POLL QUESTION⚜️
Which position group do you think is the #Saints best? (If other comment below)
— Canal St. Chronicles (@SaintsCSC) July 3, 2025
After 370 votes, the offensive line won with 43.5% of the vote. The Saints offensive line is headlined by Erik McCoy, who is coming off his second straight Pro Bowl season and also includes four 1st round picks. Guard Cesar Ruiz is the second most tenured player on the Saints front line, while fellow first round pick Trevor Penning is going to move to guard full time this season after his first few years were spent at tackle.
The Saints offensive line also features last year’s first-round pick Taliese Fuaga who is coming off a strong rookie season, as well as this year’s first-round pick NFL Draft pick Kelvin Banks Jr. who the Saints selected with their first top 10 pick in 17 years. The Saints have high hopes for their offensive line, and rightfully so given the amount of first round picks they have invested in the group.
When the Saints were at their best around 2009, their offensive line was one of the top groups in the NFL, so it would make sense why the same front office wants to build up that group again. If Banks lives up to expectations, and Penning adepts well to the move inside, the Saints offensive line should be a strong point, and with two young QBs at the helm the need for a great offensive line is certainly now.
