Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureB
Mendoza is the Vikings' new face under center. Grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Vikings were there to profit. Brandon Cisse, the No. 34 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 240. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Whatever Fernando Mendoza becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the 18th overall pick they get a franchise quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Mansoor Delane
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Mansoor Delane in pick No. 62, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick82 Rnd3 Carnell Tate
They will replay Carnell Tate at slot 82 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Spencer Fano
You do not let an offensive lineman like Spencer Fano reach the 97th overall pick and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at the Round 5 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick194 Rnd6 Colton Hood
Circle this one: Colton Hood at the 194th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick234 Rnd7 Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe in pick 234 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick240 Rnd7 Brandon Cisse
They robbed the room for Brandon Cisse here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
