Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 105th overall pick: the Saints steal Leavitt and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Sam Leavitt had no business being available in the 105th pick, and the Saints did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Louis reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 T.J. Parker
In slot 5 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A quiet steal in pick 37: Dillon Thieneman for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick69 Rnd3 Eric Rivers
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Eric Rivers in the 69th pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Sam Leavitt
Steal is underselling it; Sam Leavitt at Round 4, Pick 3 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis at No. 138 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kage Casey
A tidy bit of business in the Round 5 slot, where Kage Casey graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jahiem White
Jahiem White in the 183rd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
