Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB+
The Vikings let Price fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The board owed the Vikings one, and it paid up: Jadarian Price, the No. 69 name on the board, sitting there at the 97th overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In pick 26 they get a ballhawk on the outside at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick49 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks slipping to slot 49 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Jake Golday at Round 3, Pick 18 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jadarian Price
Taking Jadarian Price in the 97th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
