Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Vikings, and a B- to prove it.

Some picks age like wine; Jaeden Roberts at pick 49 will need to, sitting 36 spots clear of his grade. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Singleton Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In slot 18 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jaeden Roberts
Value said wait; Jaeden Roberts in the 49th overall pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick80 Rnd3 Justice Haynes
They talked themselves into Justice Haynes at the 80th pick, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97 Rnd3 Eric Singleton Jr.
Circle this one: Eric Singleton Jr. at No. 97 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd4 Terry Moore
Terry Moore at Round 4, Pick 38 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kyle Louis
They did well to land Kyle Louis in pick 169, just ahead of his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick212 Rnd6 Quinten Joyner
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinten Joyner. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick235 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
Brett Norfleet at pick 235 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
