The New Orleans Saints made an extension happen with right tackle Ryan Ramczyk, inking the former first-round pick to a five-year $90 million extension on Wednesday morning per Adam Schefter. The deal makes Ramczyk the highest-paid right tackle in the NFL and it’s a well-deserved contract for the Wisconsin alum.

Saints fans were hoping a deal would get done with Ramczyk and he definitely deserved to get paid like the best right tackle in football. Now he will be paid like one and the Saints have proven once again that they can afford to keep their best players.
