Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Saints.

There is reaching, and then there is Jordan Watkins at slot 184. The Saints jumped the board by 122 and dared it to prove them wrong. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Dart. With cornerback, offensive lineman and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

So much rides on Xavier Watts that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Xavier Watts
In No. 9 they get a downhill hitter at safety, a steep price for the projection. More want than need.
Pick40 Rnd2 Mike Green
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mike Green in the 40th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Oluwafemi Oladejo
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Oluwafemi Oladejo. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jack Kiser
They reached into another round for Jack Kiser, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick112 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They bypassed pressing needs at cornerback, offensive lineman and other spots to take Billy Bowman Jr., a safety that was not the priority.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jaxson Dart
They will replay Jaxson Dart at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jordan Watkins
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jordan Watkins this early at No. 184. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
You do not let a tight end like Thomas Fidone II reach Round 7, Pick 32 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
They reached a country mile for Brant Kuithe at the 254th overall pick, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
