Saints draft grades for picking Cesar Ruiz in the first round

The first round of the 2020 NFL Draft is in the books, and draft grades are flying in from all around the media landscape. And so far, the reaction to the New Orleans Saints picking Michigan center/guard Cesar Ruiz is overwhelmingly positive. We graded the pick well ourselves, but it’s nice to see such a validating response from draft experts.

We’ll start out with some thoughts from our colleagues. K.D. Drummond over at Touchdown Wire gave the Saints an A grade, adding that Ruiz brings a wealth of experience — he snapped the ball 919 times for the Wolverines last year.
