Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueD+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Vikings won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

Nobody had Sean Martin this high, and it is not close. The Vikings reached 109 spots to get him at Round 6, Pick 40.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They left a pile of value on the table to take Barrett Carter this early at the Round 2 slot. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jordan Travis
They reached a country mile for Jordan Travis at Round 2, Pick 27, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick120 Rnd4 Frank Gore Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Frank Gore Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick157 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at pick No. 157 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick161 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
They read the board right and Jack Nelson was the payoff at No. 161. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick168 Rnd5 Fabien Lovett
A straight-up fair deal on Fabien Lovett at the 168th pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
They paid a round early for Jaylan Ford in pick 179, more than the board wanted. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick205 Rnd6 Zion Nelson
A wild overpay on Zion Nelson in pick No. 205, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick215 Rnd6 Sean Martin
They talked themselves into Sean Martin at the 215th pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
