Draft Grade — Saints
Overall C+
ValueF NeedB TradesA- FutureA
The Saints land in the muddy middle: C+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Peny Boone; the Saints did not wait, grabbing him 333 spots ahead at the Round 3 slot. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

On value alone, Monheim makes the weekend a net positive. Spending an early pick on linebacker with cornerback, quarterback and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Saints clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick45 Rnd2 Ahmed Hassanein
A big swing on Ahmed Hassanein at slot 45, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at pick No. 56 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick71 Rnd3 Peny Boone
They reached a country mile for Peny Boone at Round 3, Pick 7, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
A curious use of No. 93. Cornerback, quarterback and other spots needed the pick; a linebacker in Danny Stutsman did not.
Pick109 Rnd4 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in the 109th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Omari Thomas
Omari Thomas at pick 112 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jasheen Davis
A real head-scratcher, Jasheen Davis in Round 4, Pick 29 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick184 Rnd6 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Steal is underselling it; Jonah Monheim at slot 227 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick248 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
No edge and no loss on Roc Taylor in pick No. 248; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 Ben Bywater
Ben Bywater at the 254th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
