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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Raheim Sanders, slot 186, roughly 40 picks past where he belonged.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Their trades came out a wash either way.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a red-zone target to build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 24th pick they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at No. 71 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick93 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Deone Walker in the 93rd overall pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalen Milroe in slot 111. The roster fit checks out.
Pick186 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in pick No. 186 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
