Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints won the night they stopped Johnson from sliding. Grade: B.

When a board-topper like Kaleb Johnson slides to the Round 3 slot, you do not overthink it, and the Saints did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 9 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Kaleb Johnson at Round 3, Pick 7 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
A slide stopped in No. 93, with Mason Taylor worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in pick No. 112 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the 131st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at the 184th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Theo Wease Jr. at pick 248, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
Jabbar Muhammad in Round 7, Pick 38 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
