Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Vikings this weekend: B+.

Whoever sat across the table from the Vikings should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

The cost of the Coogan reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. It is not that Hill Jr. is a bad player; it is that the Vikings had louder needs to answer first.

Getting Hill Jr. where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 27th overall pick they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at fair value. More want than need.
Pick49 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Value with a capital V on Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 49, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick59 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Anthony Hill Jr. at linebacker with quarterback and edge rusher open.
Pick82 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
Dontay Corleone at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick97 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
A slide stopped in pick 97, with Daylen Everette worth more than the price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138 Rnd4 Kaytron Allen
They paid a round early for Kaytron Allen in slot 138, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick163 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Nothing to complain about; Beau Stephens went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick167 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Pat Coogan well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
They let Jeff Caldwell come to them and pounced at pick No. 196. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick234 Rnd7 Eli Heidenreich
A straight-up fair deal on Eli Heidenreich at slot 234, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
Miles Kitselman slid further than he should have, and pick 235 is lovely value for the tight end. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick244 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
No drama and no debate, Desmond Reid went about where he belonged in the 244th overall pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
