Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureC
The Saints did enough to get by: C+.

The Saints let the board come to them and it handed over Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in the 97th overall pick, comfortably the best value of their weekend.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 14 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in slot 45 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They read the board right and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 34. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick115 Rnd4 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at pick No. 115 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trevor Keegan. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Good price on Marist Liufau in the 168th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson is a better player than pick 170 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 AJ Barner
A slide stopped in the 175th pick, with AJ Barner worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick190 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in slot 190 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Layden Robinson
They paid up for Layden Robinson at No. 199 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick239 Rnd7 Bub Means
They let Bub Means come to them and pounced at the 239th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
