Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C-
ValueF NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints land in the muddy middle: C-.

The Saints looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Montravius Lloyd at the Round 4 slot regardless, 171 picks early.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Wendell Gregory
In pick No. 8 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Lance Heard
They reached into another round for Lance Heard, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick73 Rnd3 A.J. Harris
A real head-scratcher, A.J. Harris in slot 73 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Montravius Lloyd
Montravius Lloyd in the 132nd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick136 Rnd4 Bradyn Joiner
Bradyn Joiner in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148 Rnd5 Dylan Raiola
Dylan Raiola in No. 148 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick170 Rnd5 Shamar Porter
They left a pile of value on the table to take Shamar Porter this early at the Round 5 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick188 Rnd6 Earl Little Jr.
They will replay Earl Little Jr. at slot 188 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
