Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Vikings.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Troy Bowles at Round 7, Pick 24, a reach of 45 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Haulcy. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In the 18th overall pick they get an every-down engine for the run game, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
A slide stopped in pick No. 49, with Sonny Styles worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick82 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
They barely believed it either: A.J. Haulcy still on the board at the Round 3 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad at slot 97 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick162 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson at the 162nd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
No edge and no loss on Isaiah Jatta in No. 195; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234 Rnd7 PJ Williams
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on PJ Williams. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick240 Rnd7 Troy Bowles
Troy Bowles at No. 240 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
