Cesar Ruiz, C/G, Michigan
This pick makes sense for two reasons. First, I’m not sure Joe Thuney will be on the roster in 2020. The Patriots could easily trade him to free up cap space. And even on the franchise tag, he should command a significant return – maybe a high second-rounder. Second, David Andrews’ health status is up in the air after he missed 2019 with blood clots in his lungs. A Day 1 starter like Ruiz could make a huge impact in helping Sony Michel put together a better season.
