Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Saints put a flag in the ground for Que Robinson, 99 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Winston Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 9 they get a centerpiece for the ground game at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They reached a country mile for Tate Ratledge at No. 40, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at the 71st pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at pick No. 94 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 112 is the proof. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick131 Rnd4 Barryn Sorrell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Barryn Sorrell in Round 4, Pick 29, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick179 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West at slot 179 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in pick No. 184 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
A wild overpay on Isaac TeSlaa in pick 216, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bilhal Kone at No. 248. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick254 Rnd7 Brandon Adams
They went early on Brandon Adams in the Round 7 slot, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
