Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Vikings: B-.

The tape said wait; the Vikings did not. Justice Haynes went at No. 80, a good 22 picks before the board was ready. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. With quarterback, edge rusher and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on linebacker is the choice that costs them.

Getting Mills where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In No. 15 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at the Round 2 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick80 Rnd3 Justice Haynes
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Justice Haynes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick97 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
A want over a need in pick No. 97: Whit Weeks adds a linebacker while quarterback, edge rusher and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jaden Greathouse
By-the-book stuff, Jaden Greathouse at the 161st pick squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick199 Rnd6 Monroe Mills
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 18, with Monroe Mills worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick231 Rnd7 Khalil Barnes
Khalil Barnes at Round 7, Pick 15 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243 Rnd7 Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander at the 243rd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
