Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Saints: B.

The Saints torched the value chart for Darrell Jackson Jr., taking him 33 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 David Bailey
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 1 slot with a little surplus value in David Bailey. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick42 Rnd2 Chris Bell
No drama and no debate, Chris Bell went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 10. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
They talked themselves into Darrell Jackson Jr. at No. 73, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Will Lee III in the 132nd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick136 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
No edge and no loss on Cade Klubnik in the 136th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150 Rnd5 Eli Raridon
They let Eli Raridon come to them and pounced at pick No. 150. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick172 Rnd5 Louis Moore
Louis Moore at the Round 5 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick190 Rnd6 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner is a better player than slot 190 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
