Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings cashed the board's mistake on Fortune: B-.

The Vikings spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: O'Donnell Fortune, the No. 156 name on the board, in No. 187. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes. They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In the 32nd pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. A real need, handled.
Pick96 Rnd3 Devin Neal
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Devin Neal. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick97 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They did well to land Savion Williams in No. 97, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick134 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce in Round 4, Pick 32 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
By-the-book stuff, Malachi Moore at pick No. 139 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick187 Rnd6 O'Donnell Fortune
A cornerback of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
