Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Saints did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Saints looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Andrew Armstrong at Round 7, Pick 38 regardless, 46 picks early. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Woodson at that price is a win they earned. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a centerpiece for the ground game. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Somehow Nick Emmanwori was still sitting there in the 40th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick71 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in Round 3, Pick 7 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick93 Rnd3 Kyle McCord
They reached into another round for Kyle McCord, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
They paid sticker price for Miles Frazier in slot 112, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick131 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, Nohl Williams in the 131st pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 CJ West
No edge and no loss on CJ West in slot 184; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
They barely believed it either: Craig Woodson still on the board at Round 7, Pick 32. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick254 Rnd7 Andrew Armstrong
A big swing on Andrew Armstrong at the 254th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
