Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Saints: B-.

Everything else got attention, and edge rusher got none. That is a strange way for the Saints to leave a draft.

The cost of the Burks reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Getting Lee III where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick 8 they get a downhill hitter at safety. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
By-the-book stuff, Lee Hunter at Round 2, Pick 10 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Deion Burks
Deion Burks in the Round 3 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Justin Joly
A tidy bit of business in No. 132, where Justin Joly graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick136 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Will Lee III at slot 136 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at the 150th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey is a better player than pick No. 172 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick190 Rnd6 Seth McGowan
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Seth McGowan. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
