Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Saints for Dike: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Chimere Dike at the 254th pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 26 they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at No. 40 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Circle this one: Tre Harris at the 71st pick is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick93 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in slot 93 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Somehow Deone Walker was still sitting there in the 112th overall pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick131 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
They let Jonah Monheim come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick248 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They paid sticker price for Hayden Conner in pick No. 248, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick254 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike in No. 254 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
