Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Saints: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Nate Boerkircher got past him. The Saints do not have to explain a thing at the 170th overall pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will need Moore to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick No. 8 they get a rangy last line of defense. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
Value said wait; Derrick Moore in pick 42 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick73 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. in the 73rd pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick132 Rnd4 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at pick 132 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick136 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels at No. 136 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in Round 5, Pick 10 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Nate Boerkircher
Taking Nate Boerkircher in pick No. 170 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick188 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
A reach on Pat Coogan in the Round 6 slot; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
