Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB FutureB-
Dart is the Saints' new face under center. Grade: B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Saints spent their marquee pick on Jaxson Dart, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Dart pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In pick 24 they get their quarterback of the future, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
