Draft Grade — Saints

Good, not great, for the Saints: B. There is a lot to like until you notice cornerback is still a hole. The Saints never got to the one that mattered most.
The Concepcion value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick8
Rnd1
Keldric Faulk
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick42
Rnd2
KC Concepcion
Nice patience on KC Concepcion, who had no business lasting to pick No. 42. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
