Draft Grade — Saints
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Saints won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Vincent Anthony Jr. in pick 143, a good 43 spots before the room expected him. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Greathouse falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

The Kevin Dotson deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Bottom line, with Peter Woods leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a premier pass rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick23 Rnd1 Christen Miller
By-the-book stuff, Christen Miller at the 23rd pick squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick35 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
A big swing on Olaivavega Ioane at pick No. 35, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Romello Height
They paid sticker price for Romello Height in the 56th overall pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elijah Sarratt at slot 66 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara in No. 87 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick135 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They left a pile of value on the table to take DeMonte Capehart this early at No. 135. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick143 Rnd5 Vincent Anthony Jr.
They reached a country mile for Vincent Anthony Jr. at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jaden Greathouse
You do not let a wide receiver like Jaden Greathouse reach pick No. 183 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
