Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedA TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Saints left wide receiver untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Connor Lew
No edge and no loss on Connor Lew in the 36th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Colton Hood
Nothing to complain about; Colton Hood went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
