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

Some picks age like wine; Seth McGowan at the Round 2 slot will need to, sitting 372 spots clear of his grade. A mixed bag that lands at C.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In slot 9 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Seth McGowan
They reached into another round for Seth McGowan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Hayden Conner
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Hayden Conner well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mike Green
Circle this one: Mike Green at pick 93 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at No. 112 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jalen Travis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jalen Travis. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 Warren Brinson
Warren Brinson at the 184th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at the 248th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jackson Woodard
Jackson Woodard at No. 254 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor itch, scratched.
