| With Luke Johnson As a Wisconsin native, Ryan Ramczyk may be familiar with the concept of making cheddar. Wednesday, the Saints made him a connoisseur. Bad Wisconsin jokes aside, Wednesday was a really good day for both the Saints and their standout right tackle. Ramczyk signed a five-year, $96 million extension that made him the NFL's highest paid right tackle. The Saints not only locked up a foundational offensive player for the foreseeable future, but also likely created some financial wiggle room in the here and now that will allow them to pursue another veteran or two. That, friends, is a win-win situation. Since he entered the NFL in 2017, Ramczyk has not only played outstanding football, but he's been incredibly dependable. We get into all that in our story from the day's big news. While we're on the offensive line topic, you should also make some time to read about the guy who is going to be lining up next to Ramczyk on the line this season, Cesar Ruiz, who after an up-and-down rookie season is feeling himself settle into a comfortable spot at a position that at times felt foreign last year. And, while we're on the topic of second-year players, it is time to start thinking about how good tight end Adam Trautman may be now that is path to playing time is not obstructed by veterans Jared Cook and Josh Hill. So sit down, crack open that package of aged Wisconsin's finest and dig into the latest from our team at nola.com Cheers, Luke |
