Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Saints a B.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Saints were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Every board in the league had Robinson lower, and that gap is the story. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Johnson.

Dayo Odeyingbo gives the group a proven body among the projects.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 15th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick45 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They took Keon Coleman at par in pick 45, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81 Rnd3 Renardo Green
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Renardo Green in pick No. 81. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick82 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
They let Michael Hall Jr. come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
The board had Theo Johnson higher than Round 4, Pick 17, and the tight end fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick118 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in slot 118 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at No. 150 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Value with a capital V on Jaylin Simpson in the 168th pick, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson slipping to pick No. 170 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick175 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor in the 175th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick190 Rnd6 Layden Robinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Layden Robinson well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
A premium they did not need to pay, Kendall Milton a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick237 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor in No. 237 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jacob Monk
Good price on Jacob Monk in the Round 7 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
