Draft Grade — Saints
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Saints cashed the board's mistake on Nelson: B+.

The Saints ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

The Nelson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Dre'Mont Jones pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 15 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick46 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
A reasonable price with a little left over, Troy Fautanu in pick No. 46. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They took Beaux Limmer at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick150 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the 150th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
A slide stopped in the 170th overall pick, with Jaylan Ford worth more than the price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick176 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cody Schrader. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at Round 6, Pick 16 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 DeWayne Carter
Quietly one of the better values of the day, DeWayne Carter at the Round 6 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
