Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Saints get a C+.

The Saints torched the value chart for Barion Brown, taking him 72 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

So much rides on Caleb Downs that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get a centerfielder for the defense. Need was not the driver here.
Pick42 Rnd2 Zachariah Branch
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zachariah Branch. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick73 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
They talked themselves into Harold Perkins Jr. at pick 73, and the board did not agree. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick132 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
They reached into another round for Oscar Delp, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tim Keenan III. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris at slot 148 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 Barion Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Barion Brown this early at pick 188. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
