Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints bet the future on Moore. The board says B-.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Saints spent their marquee pick on Dante Moore, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Williams. The Capehart reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value.
Pick42 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
They paid a round early for Dani Dennis-Sutton in slot 42, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick73 Rnd3 Antonio Williams
A tidy bit of business in pick 73, where Antonio Williams graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick132 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They paid up for DeMonte Capehart at pick No. 132 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jakobe Thomas in the Round 4 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick149 Rnd5 Albert Regis
A reach on Albert Regis in No. 149; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A tidy little value on DJ Campbell in the 171st overall pick, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Quinten Joyner
Quinten Joyner in the 189th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
