ESPN analyst: Saints' first-round NFL draft pick is 'a great way to start a rebuild'

ESPN's Matt Miller sees the New Orleans Saints drafting Kelvin Banks Jr. as "a great way to start a rebuild" under first-year head coach Kellen Moore. Typically, quarterback is how you would like to start a rebuild, but there are many analysts who believe there wasn't a quarterback worth drafting at that position. The way the draft unfolded would suggest teams felt the same way.

Offensive tackle is the next-best route. It's one of three premier positions on offense. The Saints drafted Taliese Fuaga last year, and this pairing should give them their offensive tackle duo of the future.
