Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C
ValueC NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Saints to a C.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Saints did exactly that with Hank Bachmeier in Round 7, Pick 41.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Belton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer in Round 2, Pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
They read the board right and Jalen Royals was the payoff at pick 71. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They paid up for Jared Wilson at the 93rd pick when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in slot 94 lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112 Rnd4 Barryn Sorrell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Barryn Sorrell well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in the 131st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184 Rnd6 Caleb Ransaw
This one needs a full-page explanation: Caleb Ransaw in the Round 6 slot, miles early. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick248 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
Gino Garcia in the 248th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick257 Rnd7 Hank Bachmeier
They reached into another round for Hank Bachmeier, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
